How to Measure — Footwear

Foot LengthFix paper to the floor, stand on it and ask someone to mark your heel and the tip of your longest toe. Measure the distance.

Measure Both FeetAlways measure both feet — it is normal for feet to differ slightly. Use the longer measurement.

Between Sizes?Go up one size for comfort, especially for hiking and trail shoes where toe room matters on descents.

Measure in the AfternoonFeet swell during the day — measuring later in the day gives the most accurate result.
