Although, we are not giving you any guarantee that the first pair of shoes you try will be the perfect fit. Yet, the measurements below will help you to discover real comfort right from the beginning.

Step 1. Find your Shoe Size

With a tape measure or ruler, measure the distance from the back of your heel to the end of your longest toe (in mm). The best way is to use a paper and pencil and draw your feet one by one on two big size papers. Draw a center line for the width and length of your foot just like the given below photo shows, measure them with ruler and write the measurement down. Most people have feet of different sizes and the length of your longest foot will determine your shoe size.

Step 2. Find your Width Fitting

Use a scale, soft tape measure or string, and measure the circumference (in mm) around your foot at the widest point, usually where your toe joints meet your foot. Then substrate 3/16 inch from the reading to offset the small space between the pencil line and your actual foot.

For shoe size, view the table below and get the one closest to your reading.

Length = _____ inches – 3/16 inches = ________ inches (refer to chart 1 for your shoes size)

Width = ______ inches – 3/16 inches = ________ inches (refer to chart 2 to for you shoes width)
