What does this tool do?

Shoe sizing scales differ between the UK, the US and Europe, and the gap is not the same for men and women. This converter uses the common adult charts and shows all three sizes.

The Formula

Men: US = UK + 1, EU = UK + 34; women: US = UK + 2.5, EU = UK + 33

Frequently Asked Questions

Do men's and women's sizes convert the same way?

No. Women's US sizes run about 1.5 sizes above men's for the same foot length, so the offset from UK sizes is different. Choose the category that matches the chart you are using.

Why does the EU size not match exactly?

European sizes use a different scale based on lasts and are often quoted in steps of a third or a half. Treat the EU figure as the nearest equivalent and check the brand's own chart.
