About This Calculator
Convert shoe sizes between US, UK, EU, and Mondopoint (foot length in cm) for women's and men's sizing. Enter your size in any system and get the equivalent in all others, plus neighbouring sizes to help you find the best fit.
How It Works
Select your gender, choose the input system (US, UK, EU, or foot length in cm), and enter your size. The converter returns the equivalent size in all four systems plus the nearest smaller and larger sizes. Foot length in cm is measured as the distance from the heel to the longest toe (Mondopoint, ISO 9407).
The Formula
Shoe sizes are table lookups following industry standards: Brannock Device measurements for US/UK sizing, Paris Point system for EU (each point = 2/3 cm), and ISO 9407 Mondopoint for CM foot length. Women's US to UK conversion is approximately US − 2.5; men's is approximately US − 0.5.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Mondopoint / CM in shoe sizing?
- Mondopoint (ISO 9407) measures foot length in centimetres from heel to longest toe. It is used in some countries (Japan, Korea, Russia) and is also a precise way to find your exact size. Measure your foot on a hard floor while standing.
- How do I convert US women's to EU shoe size?
- Approximate formula — EU ≈ (US women's + 31). For example, US women's 8 ≈ EU 38–39. However, exact values vary by brand. Use the converter for the industry-standard table.
- Why does my EU 38 fit differently in different brands?
- EU sizes are nominal — they correspond to foot length via Paris Point (1 point = 2/3 cm), but brands add different amounts of "last allowance" (extra room inside the shoe). The same EU 38 can vary by 0.5–1 cm between brands.
- How do I measure my foot for Mondopoint sizing?
- Place a sheet of paper on a hard floor. Stand barefoot with your heel against the wall. Mark the tip of your longest toe. Measure the distance in cm from the wall to the mark. Add 0.5–1 cm for typical sock allowance.
