Shoe size: how to measure or convert
How do you measure your shoe size correctly?
Find your shoe size
Shoes are often shown in English shoe sizes, English sizing takes into account half sizes. Usually you work in the Netherlands with French sizes and therefore you should convert your shoe size. How it works
Are you French shoe size? Then you find your English shoe in the shoe table. To illustrate, a French size 38 is a size 5. English Size 40 is a British size 6.5.
Not sure what size you wear? Measure the length of your feet (with socks) to the rear point of the ball of your foot to your longest toe. Measure both feet, because it may be that you have one foot longer than the other. The longest foot is the guide for your size.
On the basis of your foot length, you can also look up your shoe size in the table. For example, a foot length of 27.3 cm, a French 43 or English 9.
Tips:
When measuring your feet stand on a piece of paper and mark off both feet as precise as possible and then measure your feet.
You measure a size smaller than you normally wear? It may be that you have a broader base and need a wider shoe. See: Which shoe size do I need?
Determine the shoe size:
Keep space! For most shoe money you 4-8 mm space for the toes to keep.
Note: the shoe sizes in the tables are those without taking socks into account.
