5'8.75 is a fair estimate probably 5'9 out of bed. My mid day barefoot height is only 5'9.3 😂.

hey i've got a question thats been bothering me ,are all these heights that are listed barefoot or with normal shoes because shoes make a significant difference

how exactly does he look 2 inches taller than Blake Lively in every single photo together, yet she is listed as taller than him? this has never made any sense to me. he seems near 5'10 to me.

Rob, would you say he dips below 5'8.375 at night - a little bit below the 5'8.5 mark?

Editor RobI would say he holds 5ft 8.5, I thin at times can look near 5ft 9

He looks the same body proportions as James McAvoy. I don't think he is more than 5ft 8in.

5'8 barefoot is right on point for him and he wasn't shorter than Emma Stone whose really like 5'7 or 5'8 in heels I think her height is like strong 5'4 and weak 5'5

That's AMAZING! I watched one of Penn's movies tonight and he came over as much taller than 5ft8.5! He has a handsome face so maybe I wasn't taking Penn's height in as well as I might otherwise have done! 😲
I'm giving him 5ft9. I thought he was nearer 5ft11!

How tall do you think James Scully is? He constantly looked a couple of inches taller than Penn. Maybe 5'10 3/4?

Editor RobYeah near 5ft 11 looks feasible

It seems to me that past generations looked taller at shorter heights. In the 60s or 70s I think an average 5’8.5 guy would have his build.

@Jacoby
He's a very lean and slender guy. Somewhere around 130-140 lbs (59-63.5 kg) would be my guess

Haven't seen him without boots ever in his new show. Solid 5'8 is right. Unrelated but what would you guess his weight is in You?

I thought he was 176cm. I swear he was taller than ed westwick. He looks 176cm next to blake lively. Chace was always taller than him so I guess 174cm is right on.

His head isn't big at all. I actually always considered him one of the smaller-headed guys

I'm with MD on this one. Dude is a couple inches shorter than Crawford and I think Chace is a 5'10" flat guy. Penn is 5'8" range IMO. Fair listing.

I'm kind of surprised by some of these comments. He's very close in height to Ed Westwick listed as being 5'8.5", here, and even if we consider Ed wears lifts, in a lot of these shots he's in footwear that wouldn't really allow it:

He's certainly not taller than Ed, and maybe even something like a quarter-inch shorter. And, there does seem to be a solid 2" between him and 5'10.5" Chace Crawford when Chace pulls up to his full posture. I think Penn may be a very strong 5'8", but I'm not seeing the 5'9"/near 5'10" everyone else sees.

How big do you think his head is Rob? He looks like its pretty big, but it might just be hair

Editor Rob he could have equal eye-head and eye-chin, I don't think his head is that much more than average.

Did think he was 5f9/175cm aswell.
For some reason, I always thought he would've suited being 5f10/5f11, because of his face.
