O narzędziu Shoe Size Converter
Shoe sizes do not follow one universal scale. A UK 6 in men's shoes is usually a US 7 and an EU 40, but the same numbers can feel slightly different from one brand to the next. This shoe size converter takes a size you already know, whether it is a UK, US, EU or centimetre measurement, and shows the nearest matching sizes in the other systems. Choose men's, women's or children's, enter the size, and the matching sizes appear with the full chart underneath so you can see the sizes around yours.
The charts use typical values taken from common sizing guides, so treat the results as a starting point rather than a guarantee. Centimetres are usually the most reliable way to compare, because they describe the length of the foot itself. If your size sits between two rows, the converter shows the closest one and tells you there is no exact match. Always check the size guide on the shop where you are buying, especially for children, where sizing is the least standard.

Najczęstsze pytania
How do I measure my foot for shoe size?
Stand with your weight evenly on both feet, on a sheet of paper placed against a wall. Mark the back of your heel and the tip of your longest toe, then measure the distance between the two marks in centimetres. Measure both feet, since one is often slightly larger, and use the longer measurement. Measuring in the afternoon is often recommended, because feet swell a little during the day.
Why does a UK size differ from a US size?
The UK and US use different starting points. For men, a US size is usually one whole size higher than the UK size, while for women the US size is usually two whole sizes higher. Children's sizes follow another pattern again. These are conventions rather than exact measurements, so the same UK size can fit slightly differently between brands and styles.
Is an EU size the same as a UK size?
No, although they are close. EU sizes are based on the Paris point, which is two thirds of a centimetre, so an EU number rises by roughly one and a half for every centimetre of foot length. A UK 6 for men is usually an EU 40. Comparing the centimetre column is a good way to check an EU size against a UK one, because it removes the guesswork from the two number systems.
Should I buy a larger shoe if I am between sizes?
Many people find it more comfortable to go up to the larger size when they are between two sizes, especially for walking shoes and running shoes that need room for the toes. For dress shoes or sandals, the closer fit may be better. Try shoes on at the end of the day, when feet are slightly larger, and check the fit in the shop where you can.
Why are children's shoe sizes so hard to match?
Children's feet grow quickly, and shoe makers use different sizing rules for toddlers, children and juniors. This means the same UK size can vary between brands much more than adult sizes do. Measuring the foot in centimetres and comparing it with the brand's own chart is the most dependable approach, and it is worth measuring again every few months as children grow.
