Formula notes
The converter normalizes the measured length to millimetres, then applies the captured adult or child reference formulas for each regional scale.
Worked examples
- Example: a 254 mm adult foot length returns UK 7, US men 8, US women 9, and Japan 25.5, with a 255 mm Korea size.
- A 127 mm child foot length returns UK 5, US child 5.5, EU 21, and marks other adult scales as not applicable.
How to use it
- Choose adult or child sizing.
- Measure the standing foot and enter its length in mm, cm, or inches.
- Compare the returned sizes with the shoe manufacturer's chart.
Frequently asked questions
Should I measure with socks on?
Measure the foot the way you will wear the shoe; light socks or foot length differences are typical when fitting.
Do brands use the same formulas?
No. Regional scales are standardized references, but individual brands, lasts, and half-size conventions can differ.
Limits and interpretation
- Foot length is only one sizing input; width, instep, age lock, and brand-specific lasts are not measured.
- Measure both feet and follow the manufacturer or seller chart for the final size because half-size and width conventions differ.
