Formula
US men = 3 x foot length (in) - 22; UK = US men - 1; US women = US men + 1.5; EU = 1.5 x (foot length cm + 1.69)Understanding Shoe Size Conversion
Shoe sizing systems all describe the length of the shoe last, the form the shoe is made on, but they start at different zero points and use different steps. US and UK sizes count in barleycorns, one third of an inch per full size. EU sizes count in Paris points of two thirds of a centimeter. US women's sizes are typically 1.5 sizes above US men's sizes at the same length, and UK sizes are one below US men's. Because brands round and allow different room for the toes, any conversion is a good starting point, not a guarantee of fit.
Tips and Best Practices
- 1Measure your foot in the evening, when it is largest, standing on a sheet of paper.
- 2Between two sizes, choose the larger and use an insole if needed.
- 3Check the brand's own chart, especially for athletic shoes and boots.
Real-World Example
