How to measure your foot
  1. Put a sheet of paper on a hard floor, against a wall.
  2. Stand on it with your heel against the wall, wearing the socks you will wear in the shoes.
  3. Mark the tip of your longest toe.
  4. Measure from the wall to the mark, then pick the size whose foot length matches in the full chart.

Measure both feet and use the longer one. Feet are largest at the end of the day, so that is the best time to measure.

Common Footwear Sizing Questions

What's the difference between US and UK sizing?

UK sizes are typically 0.5 to 1 size smaller than US sizes. For example, a US men's size 10 is approximately a UK size 9.5.

Are European shoe sizes the same for men and women?

Yes, European (EU) sizing is unisex and based on the length of the foot in millimeters. This makes it easier to convert between men's and women's sizes.

How do I convert between women's and men's shoe sizes?

Women's US sizes are typically 1.5 sizes larger than men's. For example, a women's US size 8.5 is equivalent to a men's US size 7.

What is Mondo sizing?

Mondo (CM) sizing is used primarily in Japan and for ski boots. It measures the foot length in centimeters and is the most direct measurement system.

What's the difference between European shoe size charts and US size charts?

European shoe size charts use a standardized measurement system based on Paris Points (1 point = 2/3 cm), while US size charts use the Barleycorn scale (1 size = 1/3 inch). European charts are also unisex, whereas US charts have separate men's and women's scales, making European shoe size to US conversion more straightforward with a proper chart.

How do I convert UK to US shoe sizes?

To convert UK to US shoe sizes, add 0.5 to 1 to the UK size. For example, a UK size 8 is approximately a US size 8.5 for men and a US size 10 for women. UK sizes typically run about one size smaller than US sizes.
