5'10", but shrunk a 1/2" this year, I'm 55.
My dad and grandad were tall. I thought my kids would be tall, the next generation thing like was mentioned. My daughters are 5'7" and 5'8". My son is 6'3". I guess it's just the guys in the family!
When I was young, I'd have to go into a shoe store and ask them to show me what they had in a size 10 shoe. Usually that would give me 2 or 3 pair to choose from. Unfortunately not much has changed, either that or stores don't order many size 10 shoes!
