Finding a shoe at your foot is not always easy. Especially since from one country to another, the size of the shoes is not expressed in the same way. Here are some tips and a correspondence table so as not to be mistaken.
What US size corresponds to a 38 ? What is the equivalence of UK size 4 ? How to know if these Nike sneakers are at the right size ? What is theequivalence of a centimeter size ? These are the kinds of questions that we ask ourselves when you want to buy a pair of shoes on the internet or abroad. Thanks to This correspondence guide in centimeters, sizes fr, us, uk and euyou should never go wrong again.
For Know the size of your foot in centimeterit is simply a question. To do this, nothing could be simpler: just use a rule.
- After putting on the socks, the heel must be positioned at the base of the rule and take the size to the end of the big toe. For even more precision, you can also place a white sheet flat at the foot of a wall and install your foot on said white sheet.
- Once right against the wall, a third party is asked to make a mark at the end of the big toe. The size of the foot will then correspond precisely to the dimension between the brand and the end of the sheet.
The last option is to invest in a plastic pedimeter Or print a pedimeter on a white sheet – many models are available for free in a few clicks on Google.
To know your size and correspondence in US, UK or IT sizes, all you have to do is refer to our equivalence. Be careful however, some brands shout “smaller” or “larger”.
Depending on the country, the sizes change, because often, they do not even use the same metric systems. In France, sizes are expressed in French pointalso called Paris pointwhere 1 point = 6.66 mm. In the United Kingdom, it is the English point which prevails and 1 point = 25.4 mm. In the United States, we use the American point. Finally, in Italy, Germany and Spain and other European countries, it is generally used the Italian size, a size smaller than French size.
