Shoe size charts
Shoe sizes differ between countries and between brands. These charts start from the one thing you can check yourself: the length of your foot.
In this section

- Kids' shoe sizesFind a child's shoe size in EU, UK and US sizes from the measured foot length in centimetres or inches. No age column: feet are measured, not guessed.

- Shoe size systems explainedWhere US, UK, EU, Japanese and Mondopoint shoe sizes come from, the formulas that connect them to foot length and why brand charts disagree.
Start with your foot length
Measure both feet, take the longer one and look it up in the chart. The size finder on each chart page highlights the matching row. If you only know your size in one system, the finder converts that too.
Then compare with the size chart of the brand. The charts here follow the standard formulas; the brand charts we checked differ from them by up to one and a half sizes.
How these charts are made
Sizes are calculated from foot length with the formulas of the international specification for converting shoe sizes, and checked against the definition used by the Brannock measuring device. They are not copied from a shop or a brand. Each page lists its sources and the date of the last check.
