How to Use This Conversion Chart
Step-by-Step Guide
- Know Your Current Size: Determine your shoe size in one system (US, UK, EU, JP, or CN). If you're not sure, measure your foot length in centimeters for the most accurate conversion.
- Select Your Gender: Choose whether you're converting men's, women's, or children's sizes. The conversion scales differ significantly between genders.
- Find Your Size in the Chart: Locate your current size in the appropriate chart section. The chart shows conversions between all major international sizing systems.
- Read Across for Equivalents: Once you find your size, read across the row to find your equivalent size in other systems (US, UK, EU, JP, CN).
Understanding Different Sizing Systems
US System:
Uses different scales for men and women. Men's sizes are typically 1.5-2 sizes smaller than women's for the same foot length.
UK System:
Similar to US but with different starting points. UK sizes are typically 1 size smaller than US men's sizes.
EU System:
Based on last length in Paris points. Generally the same for men and women, making it more straightforward than US/UK systems.
JP/CN Systems:
JP uses direct foot length in centimeters. CN uses a formula: (Foot Length × 2) - 10. Both are based on actual foot measurements.
