pigeon toed
Toes pointing in
Pigeon toed describes feet that turn inward when walking or standing, so the toes point toward each other rather than straight ahead.
The condition is common in young children and usually corrects itself: She was pigeon toed as a toddler but grew out of it.
The opposite is duck footed or splayfooted.
