How to Size Your Feet for Asian Shoes

How to Size Your Feet for Asian Shoes

The tables above show what shoe size corresponds with the length of your feet. So, to choose the right shoe size, you will have to know how to measure your feet to begin with. Here’s how it’s done.

  1. Trace your foot on a sheet of paper that is slightly longer than your feet.
  2. Take a ruler or measuring tape and measure the distance between your heel and the tip of your farthest toe.
  3. Add 0.25 to 0.5 inches to the length.

Some shoemakers can custom-make shoes to a specific width. If you want to shop from such a brand, then you will also have to know how to measure the width of your foot.

Using the tracing from earlier, take a ruler or measuring tape and measure the widest point of your foot. Add 0.25 to 0.5 inches to the width.
