The irregular plural possessive for foot is feet's.
The term "feet" is the irregular plural form of "foot" in English, stemming from Old English and its Germanic roots. Many English nouns have irregular plurals that don't follow standard rules, and "foot" is one of them. This irregularity is a feature of the language's evolution over time, influenced by historical linguistic changes. Thus, "foots" is not used because it does not conform to the established pluralization of that word.
