Shen Shirong, a 35-year-old farmer from Chongqing, needs help to find Shanghai-based shoe manufacturers willing to make custom-made shoes to fit his large feet.

At 32 cm long, Shen said it was longer than the feet of NBA star Yao Ming.

In his home city of Chongqing, more than 10 women were scared away by his feet when match-makers arranged dates for them. Shen is still single.

Doctors say Shen's problem is acromegaly resulting from the abnormal secretion of growth hormone.
