Shoe Size Converter

Convert shoe sizes between US, UK, EU and centimeters.

Buying shoes from an international store is a gamble when a "size 8" means something different in every country — US, UK and EU systems each number the same foot differently, and neither foot nor number maps cleanly between them. The safest anchor is the actual foot length in centimeters, which every system is really approximating.

Pick a size in any system — US, UK, EU or centimeters, for men or women — and this converter shows the equivalents across all of them. Measure your foot length for the most reliable result, since brands vary and a converted number is a starting point, not a guarantee.
