You can get knobbly feet from arthritis however careful you are with your choice of footwear.
At her age she is lucky not to be creaking more with arthritis. She clearly has the right genes.
Sensible shoes yes but she could wear colours in the same design.

Quite right to wear shoes she can be confident in. Not many women of her age will be walking and standing around as she still does. Comfy feet are crucial.

Apparently HM has shoes properly made and has a member of staff same shoe fit to wear them in.

Gleaned from t'internet and stuck in my brain.

I can't imagine Her Maj having nobbly feet - she must have had hand made shoes all her life and, unlike some of us, has never shoved her feet into shoes that are fashionable but excruciating!

Maybe her feet are getting a bit old and knobbly and she doesn't want the bother of wearing new shoes that will be uncomfortable - even the elves and fairies can't always make new shoes that fit perfectly.

I've never really noticed before, but you're right!

always wear black shoes and carry a black handbag? She has such lovely clothes in beautiful colours but when you look down there are these same black shoes spoiling the line. I realise she problems has many such pairs and its not the same ones all the time and that they are handmade by elves and kissed by the fairies but I would love to see her with some summer colours to co-ordinate her outfit- I don't mean matchy-matchy but something lighter. I expect its just me that's bothered isn't it?
