How to Measure Your Shoe Size Correctly
The correct shoe size depends on foot length and the allowance for movement. This section will explain an easy way to measure your foot length that you can follow.
- Prepare your equipment: A4 paper, pencil or pen, a ruler (in centimeters), and adhesive tape to keep the paper from moving.
- Trace your foot and measure the length.
-
- Measure in the evening: The best time to measure your feet is after 5 PM, as your feet will have expanded fully after walking all day. Measuring in the morning might result in a smaller size than reality.
- Measure while standing: Stand on the paper, distributing your weight fully. Do not measure while sitting, as your feet will flatten and widen when bearing weight.
- Draw lines: Draw a line at the tip of your longest toe and at your heel, always holding the pen perpendicular to the floor.
- Measure the distance: Measure the distance between the two lines in centimeters.
-
Add extra space and choose your size: “Measured foot length + 0.5 to 1.0 cm = appropriate shoe size.” For example, if your foot measures 24.5 cm, add 0.7 cm to get 25.2 cm. It is recommended to choose a shoe size that accommodates 25.5 cm.
Once you have a comfortable shoe size, try mixing and matching, such as pairing a denim skirt with sneakers for a timeless streetwear look.
