Cardi B revealed her shoe size on social media, stating that she typically wears a child’s size 3.5 in sneakers but often settles for a size 3 due to difficulty finding her exact size.

Despite her small sneaker size, she fits into standard women’s shoe sizes for other types of footwear, specifically mentioning she wears a size 36.5 in Christian Louboutin pumps.
