Mature Tinies Than Can Definitely Fit Into Barbie Shoes?

May 7, 2022

    1. Hello!

      Since deciding to get into collecting mature tinies, I've become admittedly obsessed with scouring eBay for all kinds of cool Barbie shoes (there are so many options :D), and I've bought a few test pairs to have on hand as I get dolls in, but I'm starting to wonder if there are any mature tinies that 100% for sure fit into Barbie shoes?

      My first tiny is a MissMian Liz, and while she's shorter than Barbie (24cm-ish), her feet are actually bigger, so she doesn't fit into any of the test pairs :sigh I also have an EchoTown/Luuusiq Seven ordered, and she's supposed to be able to fit into Blythe shoes, which think are smaller than Barbie, so I don't know if she'll be able to wear them, either.

      Does anyone know of/own any mature tinies that have the same size feet/foot shape as a Barbie? I'm interested in dolls that will fit into the heeled shoes specifically, but I'll also consider flat feet as there are a lot of cool options for sneakers/boots/etc.

      Any advice (especially with pictures!) would be so greatly appreciated! TIA <3

    2. I think the Maskcat tinies would as their feet are very small - they are flat feet though. I have a Maskcat doll but no Barbie shoes to try to test out unfortunately.

    3. Yes, Maskcat tinies can fit some Barbie shoes. Not all, though.
      Her feet are very small, smaller than a barbies and that's what makes it work, considering that barbies have soft feet. Any hard plastic foot, even if it was identical to a barbie foot in shape, would have problem with most hard plastic barbie shoes.
      The ones that work best are the flat shoes made for heeled barbie feet, like sneakers. Some of the high heel pumps does work as in they can be put on and sometimes the doll can even stand in them, as the ankle joint of the maskcat is pretty reliable and have a hood range, but it will look a bit funny in open shoes, as the maskcat foot is like a normal barbie foot without the toe part, the foot is shorter so it leaves a gap in the front of the shoe.
      Be careful with boots, the foot will go in much easier than it will come out and there is a real risk of getting stuck. Boots with a slit up the back is safer, but they usually don't look very nice.
