Feet redirects here; for the anatomical structures, please see foot.

A foot (ft, plural feet) was an unit of length, height, or altitude, equal to twelve inches or 0.3048 meters, where three feet equaled one yard and 5,280 feet equaled one mile.

This unit was most frequently used on Earth, primarily by those of American origin, and it eventually grew less common during the latter half of the 23rd century. Spock, who grew up on Vulcan, and the Zakdorn Klim Dokachin both used the term in describing units of length. (TOS: "The Apple"; TNG: "Unification I")

When used by Spock while speaking in 19th century terms to Abraham Lincoln in 2269, he qualified the measurements he spoke of, which included feet, to be "using your old-style measurements." (TOS: "The Savage Curtain")
