Aaron Judge is going through his career-best season in 2022. Known for his hitting capabilities and leadership skills, Judge is also famous for his gigantic height. With a stature of 6’7″, the New York Yankees star is one of the tallest players in Major League baseball.

His giant-sized height helps him generate more power to launch a home run. It also helps him to run faster between the bases. But everything has its pros and cons, and in Judge’s case, sometimes his height has put him in difficult situations.

For a guy over 6’7’’, their biggest challenge is getting fitting clothes and shoes. If Aaron Judge is a giant in the sport of baseball, then basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal is even taller than him. Both face the same problems with their outfits. Talking about the same, the Yankees slugger shared how difficult it was to get 17-size shoes in his younger days.

When the host asked him how tough it was for someone like Shaquille O’Neal, Yao Ming, or Kevin Durant to buy a pair of shoes, Judge said it was very tough.

“I should not be complaining after you name those sizes. Yeah man, it was tough… It was kinda funny, like growing up you get one pair of shoes for the year. That’s what you wear to school…” Judge replied.

“It made it tough going to the mall… All your boys are picking out like I’m gonna get 11 this and that. I am like, what’s the biggest size you got? 14, alright! I’ll catch you outside…”
