NEVER push off with the front foot when moving foward, this will cause many problems. I am not a specialist on the "longer leg" subject, but maybe if you put your feet closer or farther apart either vertically or horizontally might help? There is also a possibility that you are could put more weight on one foot, but maybe you should ask your sensei, or maybe even your doctor.
Good luck though.

One of my legs are shorter than the other (by about .25-.5 inches) and so whenever i do the footwork, the left hip is uncomfortable.. i can feel the extra weight on it... a sort of pulling sensation... i can temporarily alliviate it by stretching my leg by twisting my body with the leg still braced on the ground but then it starts to feel uncomfortable again//
have any of you heard accounts of this or have any advice? mabye some stretches, or a change in footwork technique?

also, when doing sliding footwork, do you suggest i push off with the front, or with the rear?

Wont your fumikomiaishi be stronger if your left foot is a little longer?

It means that you have to compensate by having the legs either wider or narrower (depending on which leg is shorter), by approx .1 inch.
Kendo footwork is uncomfortable for virtually everybody who starts and everybody is more comfortable with the hips twisted.

My brother has the same problem, the thing is as the training is done barefooted i recommend as Ahmed said to see a doctor about how you might resolve the "uneveness" relatively to kendo footwork.
