How to Convert Shoe Size – The Complete Shoes Guide
One of the most common questions I get when helping friends or followers shop Ardur Shoes online is: “How do I convert my shoe size?” And honestly, it’s a great question. Sizes can change from one region to another, and when you're shopping across borders or buying shoes online, things can get confusing fast.
So, if you've ever wondered how to convert shoe size, this guide will walk you through everything. Whether you're switching from US to UK sizes, or just need help finding your foot measurement in CM or inches, I’ve got you covered—with help from Ardur’s official size chart and real tips that work.
Why Understanding Shoe Size Conversion Matters
Getting your shoe size right isn’t just about comfort—it’s also about confidence. A great pair of shoes should feel like they were made for your feet. But when you're dealing with international shoe size charts, it's easy to order the wrong size if you’re not careful.
Shopping Internationally? Here's Why Sizing Varies
Let’s break it down. US, UK, EU, and Asian shoe sizes are all based on different measuring systems. So, if you’re shopping from India or Europe but the shoe is listed in US sizing, you’ll need to convert before checking out.
And when it comes to Ardur Shoes, we ship across the globe—so having the right shoe size conversion chart helps make sure your sneakers, boots, or sandals fit just right.
Preventing Returns & Discomfort with the Right Fit
Trust me, I’ve been there. I once ordered a pair of shoes that were a size too small because I didn’t check the conversion. My toes were screaming, and I had to go through the return process. That’s why using a reliable shoe size converter before buying is a lifesaver. You save time, avoid pain, and get to enjoy your Ardur shoes from the moment they arrive.
Key Differences in Global Shoe Sizing Systems
Understanding how global shoe sizes work can really help, especially when you’re buying premium shoes online. Here’s a quick breakdown:
US vs UK Shoe Size – What's the Difference?
US and UK sizing systems are similar but not the same. UK sizes are typically one full size smaller than US sizes. For example, if you wear a US women’s size 8, you’ll likely wear a UK 6.
For men, a US size 10 usually equals a UK size 9. Knowing this small difference makes a big impact on how your Ardur shoes fit.
European Shoe Size Conversion Explained
European sizes are listed in numbers like 39, 40, or 41 and don’t separate men's and women's sizes the way the US and UK do. A US women’s size 8 is about a EU 39.5 or 40. So when shopping Ardur internationally, use the European shoe size conversion chart provided to avoid mistakes.
Understanding Asian Shoe Sizing Formats
Asian countries like Japan and Korea use centimeters to measure foot length. It’s a super accurate system, but not everyone is familiar with it. If your foot measures 24.5 CM, that’s around a US women’s 7.5 or EU 38.5. Knowing your foot length in CM helps when using an international shoe size chart.
How to Use a Shoe Size Converter
Step-by-Step Instructions Using Ardur’s Size Chart
Ardur makes it super easy with our built-in size chart tool. Here’s how I use it every time I shop:
- First, I measure my foot length in CM or inches.
- I check the shoe size conversion chart on the product page.
- I match my measurement to the correct size in my country (US, UK, or EU).
- Done. It’s that simple.
Using a shoe size converter is especially helpful if you’re buying for someone else or gifting shoes internationally.
Inches to Shoe Size – A Quick Tip for Accuracy
If you don’t know your size in CM, just measure your foot in inches. Most people forget that inches can be converted to size just as easily. Once you know your exact foot length, you’ll avoid sizing mistakes—especially for snug-fitting shoes like loafers or boots.

Women’s Shoe Size Conversion Made Easy
Tips for Cross-Border Online Shopping
If you’re shopping for Ardur shoes from outside the US, always start with your foot measurement. Then match that to the women’s shoe size conversion section in our chart. For example:
- A foot length of 24.5 CM = US 7.5, UK 5.5, EU 38.5
- A foot length of 25 CM = US 8, UK 6, EU 39
Easy, right? This way, you’ll know exactly which Ardur size to buy.
Half Sizes & Fit Adjustments for Ardur Shoes
Some collections come in half sizes, especially our sneakers and flats. If you’re between sizes, I always suggest going half a size up—it gives you a little wiggle room without compromising the fit.
Men’s Shoe Size Conversion Guide
From US to UK or EU – Find Your Ardur Fit
Men’s shoe sizes follow the same conversion principles:
- US 9 = UK 8 = EU 42
- US 10 = UK 9 = EU 43
When buying men’s Ardur shoes, this quick reference helps make sure your new boots or sneakers fit right from day one.
How Ardur’s Shoes Are Designed for True Fit

How to Find Your Shoe Size at Home
Measuring Your Foot Length in Inches or CM
Here’s how I measure my foot at home:
- Place your foot on a blank sheet of paper.
- Mark the tip of your longest toe and the back of your heel.
- Measure the distance between the marks in CM or inches.
- Use that measurement with Ardur’s chart.
It takes less than a minute and saves a lot of guesswork.
Matching Your Measurements with Ardur’s Size Chart
Once you have your length, go to our shoe size converter and match it. For example, 26 CM = US women’s 9 or US men’s 8. It’s fast, easy, and accurate.
Common Shoe Size Conversion Mistakes to Avoid
Relying Only on Brand Labels Without Measuring
Just because you wear a US 8 in one brand doesn’t mean every brand fits the same. Ardur uses its own carefully designed sizing, so it's always best to double-check.
Ignoring Width & Foot Shape Differences
Size is just one part of the equation. Some shoes are better for wide feet, while others suit narrower feet. If you’re not sure which Ardur shoe is best for your foot shape, our support team can help.
