Can your feet get ... smaller?? (sopuli.xyz)

Over the last 4 years i've barely worn shoes like 30 days in total. Today I noticed my previously best fitting shoes are like a size too big.

Ive also lost 40 kg from the point i bought these shoes. Have the shoes shape been ruined or have my feet shrunk??

People are right on here, losing weight can make your feet skinnier.
However the fact that you walk barefoot is what caught my attention. Im a barefoot runner, and your feet's arch becomes more pronounced as you train like that. I assume walking would lead to the same results. So yeah, being barefoot all the time does make your feet smaller, and starting to wear shoes again all the time would make that arch go away over time
