Does being overweight cause wide feet?

I've heard a lot of people speculate that being overweight can lead to having wider feet. But I'm curious, is there actually a scientific basis for this belief? Does being overweight truly cause the feet to expand in size, or is this just a myth that's been perpetuated over time? If there is a connection, what are the specific mechanisms at play? And does this mean that losing weight could potentially lead to narrower feet? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic and any evidence that supports or refutes this claim.
