HOW TO MEASURE YOUR FEET
The reliable fitting of footwear depends on the provision of accurate
sizing and width measurements. The majority of our customers, who
know their shoe size, simply quote this when placing their order.
However, if you are unsure of your size, please follow the guidelines
detailed below. If you have previously provided this information we
will already hold your details on file, and we will refer to this
when you place your order.
1. Measuring Your Shoe Size
The best way to find your shoe size is to measure the length of
your foot. If your feet are different lengths, please provide the
measurement of your longer foot. To measure the length of your foot,
take a blank sheet of paper and place this against a wall. Then
position your foot on the paper ensuring your heel is against the
wall. Please remember to place your weight firmly on your foot when
taking the measurement and to wear a pair of socks of the thickness
likely to be worn with your footwear. The length of your foot is
the measurement shown at the longest point of your foot, wherever
this might be. Please record this measurement in sixteenths of an
inch.
To find your shoe size, in the table below, look down the left
hand column until you find the measurement which corresponds with
your foot length, then look across to column 2 to find your shoe
size.

2. Measuring Your Shoe Fitting
Begin by measuring the circumference of your foot at its widest point,
which is around the front joint. To do this accurately, use a tape
measure, making sure that you wear a pair of socks similar to those
to be worn with the shoes, and that the tape measure is not held too
tightly. Record this measurement to the nearest eighth of an inch.
To arrive at your shoe fitting, look at column 1 in the table below,
locate your shoe size (already calculated at 1. above), then look
across until you see the measurement corresponding to that just calculated
for your joint. If your measurement falls between the two figures
in adjacent columns, select the column to the right. Your shoe fitting
can then be found by looking down to the box at the foot of the same
column. When quoting your fitting, it is advisable to quote the relevant
letter eg D/E/F/G/H. The narrative eg ‘Narrow’, ‘Extra-Wide’
is included merely by way of explanation. |
