well i always pictures him very tall. I mean they managed his height pretty ****ing well in "Zoom" cause next to Chevy Chase he looks an easy 6'1'' or 6'' and a half. really. unfortunately i cant find any picture of both of them together but since Chevy Chase is listed as 6'3'' here i thought Tim would be much taller than 5'10''

Used to work every week with Tim. He is short; only about 5'8" or 5'9" tops. This was back in 1984 or so. He was a grown man then, so no chance of a "late spurt".

May have been 179cm in his prime, now 177cm.

5'10.5" guys never look short to me. Tim does. I'd say 5'9.5".
Barry Langcaster says on 12/Jun/09
tim to some might apear like a 5'9ner thats easy to see ,does indeed look in the 5'10 height range, 5'10.5 with footware, even probable is 5'9.25 flat. Hes a great example to give somebody to describe a 5'10 guy.
Daii says on 22/Apr/09
He didnt look much shorter than 6'0 ish John Travolta in Wild Hogs, probably 5'10.5
Lenad says on 8/Apr/09
Looks a solid 5'10 to me
deano says on 2/Oct/08
if tims 5 ft 10.5 then arnold schwarzenegers 6ft 0 i've seen them in a picture together only 1.5 inches difference between them honest or 1.75 inches but thats max if tim allen was any shorter then that would make arnold shorter to say at 5 ft 11 and a half, but under 6 ft 0.
JD says on 31/Jul/08
I want all 5 ft 10.5 in of him..............
Mr. R says on 29/Jul/08
He is a tricky one cause he wears boots a lot.
Arnie says on 18/May/08
Could look 5'8.75, mabey 5'9 or 5'9.5 , 5'10 with shoes on , I would say between 5'9 - 5'10 , I can see with ease how some people say 5'8 because his large head with his fluffy hair make him seem shorter , but I say no taller than 5'10.25 (with shoes).
John Jay says on 17/May/08
Havent seen him in person so I cant say for certain how tall the guy really is but in my estimation from watching Home Improvement him and Al look like two 5'10 ers or mabey even 5'9.5 ers , one episode of Tool Time had Penn and Teller and Tim and Al seemed like stout large headed dwarves in compariaon to the big man he is a huge guy. Tim is a solid 5,10. with shoes, Al Borlin also the same.
JS says on 18/Jan/08
looks 5-9 to me
Ed says on 29/Dec/07
I saw him several years years ago, and 5ft10.5 is pretty much spot on. He's not 6ft by any means. Maybe with a pair of thick heeled boots he'd be scraping the 6ft mark, but not in his barefeet.
bret says on 28/Dec/07
I stood right next to Tim Allen at California Disney Adventure on New Year's Eve some years ago and couldn't believe how tall he was as he always looked short on TV. He was extremely thin and wore boots, but even without the boots he was clearly over 6 feet.
Socom says on 8/Dec/07
He is 5'9.5 in my opinion
patrick says on 28/Sep/07
Tim Allen looks like he's 5'9 1/2, at the very most. He was on Leno's show, wearing boots, and he looked shorter than him.
Aaron says on 22/Sep/07
mrs shoe, I think you need to get your eyes checked. Travolta was definitely the tallest in that movie. He had tim allen by about 1.5 to 2 inches, which is to be expected assuming that the heights listed on the site for travolta and allen are accurate. How tall are you? If your significantly shorter than allen and travolta, then posture/footwear/ground level could have thrown off your judgement leading you to think allen is taller. The listings for travolta and allen here are pretty spot-on in my opinion.
sam says on 18/Sep/07
giantmidget, how tall are you, i mean big, or just big for someone who is a midget? (not mocking, just asking what the name means)
Bad Radio says on 18/Aug/07
5'10.5 sounds right.
Anonymous says on 8/Aug/07
i think 5'10.5 is bang on near hanks 6 ft isnt far from his claim probably 5'11 morning and 5'10.25 to 5'10.5 before bed
giantmidget says on 5/Aug/07
"So if Travolta is 6'2" as he claims, that'd put Allen at 6'2.5"."

Now I've heard it all.

Back to the focus... I think 5'10.5" is spot on. He looks perfectly average, which 5'10.5" is.
Derek says on 26/Jul/07
Remember, guys that he often wears bigger boots that make him appear taller. Besides, I think Travolta's around 6 ft. and Tim's boots probably had bigger heels than his. I'd say Tim Allen is 5'll on the dot.
Mrs Shoe says on 13/Jul/07
I met him when he was in London promoting Wild Hogs and he was the tallest of the Hogs, at least 1/2 inch taller than Travolta. So if Travolta is 6'2" as he claims, that'd put Allen at 6'2.5". He wasn't much taller than Ray Liotta either, but definitely the tallest of the Hogs.
Bobo says on 28/Apr/07
yeah he's 5'10, because Wilson is listed at 6'3. There appears to be about a 5inch difference
Frank says on 1/Mar/07
Tim was on Leno last night and Leno looked about a half inch to an inch taller but i would have to say a half inch
me says on 8/Dec/06
i saw him at disneyland some years back with his family and he was taller than i thought. i would say he had to be 5'11 or close to it.
dmeyer says on 1/Nov/06
jay leno apeared a in plus on him yesturday
Anonymous says on 28/Oct/06
Is there a picture of allen next to jay leno?
dmeyer says on 23/Oct/06
he is not mush shorter than hanks 1 to 1.5 smaller than hanks so hanks aint over 6 feet if allen is 179 thats already 4 cm hanks dosnt have 2 inches on him
Adam says on 9/Oct/06
WTF!!! Tim Allen is not 5'11" Karn is 5'8" and on Home Improvement Tim Allen is less then an inch taller...
TNTinCA says on 17/Aug/06
I thought he was closer to 5'11" as well. In Galaxy Quest, he and Sigourney Weaver were about the same height in several scenes together.
MHouillon says on 2/Feb/06
Tim Allen is a solid 180cm.
Ball-A-Hallic says on 26/Jan/06
He always looked 5'8.5 2 me maybe 5'9.
gdawg says on 3/Jan/06
5'10"-5'10.5" seems right. I stood right next to him at a Barnes and Noble bookstore in West L.A. He was looking at comedy books. I'm around 5'9" and he was about an inch taller than me.
Tim Allen says on 19/Oct/05
Aaaarrrrugg?!?! I am actually 5'11" thank you very much.

[Editor Rob: actually, now that I think about it Allen stood near one of those height chart things for some movie, I think santa klaus...hmm]
Mr. R says on 27/May/05
Tim is another one who is hard to pin down, cause he often wears cowboy boots. I saw him at the Mission to Mars premiere, and he had on boots that day as well. But Richard Karn is NOT 5-10, but closer to 5-8, which made Tim look taller on Tool Time. This is a pretty good estimate.
Anonymous says on 26/May/05
In my opinion Tim Allen is at least 5'11" as you can see him standing near Richard Karn being 5'10".
Ricardo says on 19/Feb/05
more like 5'9" to me
