Frequently asked questions

Why is the result an estimate?

Shoe sizes are based on the shoe last, not the foot, and each brand adds its own allowance. Expect up to a half-size difference.

Which formula is used?

A typical 1.5 cm toe allowance is added to the foot length. EU size is 1.5 × that length in cm; UK and US sizes use the barleycorn (⅓ inch) scale.

Should I measure both feet?

Yes, in the evening when feet are slightly larger, and use the longer foot.
