How shoe size conversion works

Shoe sizes describe the length of your foot, but each region scales the numbers differently. For men, US sizes run one full size above UK sizes; for women, US sizes run two sizes above UK. EU sizes use the Paris point system, where each size is about two-thirds of a centimeter.

Because brands round and shape lasts differently, EU numbers in particular can shift by roughly half a size between makers. The most dependable approach is to measure your foot length in centimeters and match it to the cm column above.
