Please note that not every manufacturer specifies a midfoot measurement. If a brand does not provide this measurement, the midfoot is the standard. For most people, the fullness of the foot is within the norm. However, if you don't fit within this range, not only will you experience discomfort, but you may also experience complications such as blisters or joint proliferation. So pay attention to this point.

How to determine your shoe size
To determine your exact shoe size, measure your feet. Before measuring, consider the following tips.
Preparation for the measurement
- It is better to measure your feet in the evening, as they increase in size at the end of the day. Therefore, shoes can be worn comfortably both during the day and in the evening.
- It is better to wear socks before measuring if you need a size for a shoe that will not be worn barefoot.
- Most people have different lengths and widths of the two feet. Therefore, measure both feet and use the size of the larger foot as a basis.
- In order to get an accurate result, it is better to find a helper who can contour the foot without distortion.
Now start measuring.
- Stand on a piece of paper and trace the outlines of both feet. It is important that you hold the pencil strictly vertically.
- On the outline of your foot, draw two parallel lines marking the length of your foot. Draw one line at the level of the most arched toe and the other at the level of the most protruding heel.
- Measure the length between these two lines on each foot. If your feet are different lengths, choose the longer foot. Round the result down to the nearest 5 millimeters.
For the lazy, there is an alternative method: take the insole of a shoe that fits perfectly and measure the length at the very edge.
Now that you have determined the length of your foot, you need to find the right size. The table below will help you find the correct shoe size by country of origin.
