A theoretical question: If a young person (a boy for example that is 13 yrs old) that happens to be very short (not because of any physical disability) wears a normal size tallis katan it will be very long on him. May he wear a tallis katan that doesn't have a proper shiur for a normal person and make a bracha on it and still fulfill the mitzvah?
