Why Are Shoe Sizes Different Between Countries?

You don’t have to look across national borders to find significant differences in shoe sizes. All you have to do is compare the inches or centimeter figures between brands in the same country to see number sizes differ from each other.

Why is this the case? Unfortunately, there is no standardized law that determines the lengths and widths of specific shoe sizes. So, until then, your feet might fit in size-10 pair of sneakers from brand A but be 2 sizes larger (or smaller) for brand B.

When you combine this with the fact that brands from different countries may also follow different sizing guidelines, shoe sizes become one humungous mess.
