Determine the English shoe size

Internet commerce has been gaining popularity more and more recently. Special demand for our compatriots wear clothes and shoes, purchased in English stores. Many women update the wardrobe here not only for themselves, but also for their children and husbands. And for a perfect purchase to bring only pleasure, you need to know how the Russian and English sizes of shoes are correlated .

In order not to be mistaken, it is necessary to measure the size of the foot. For this purpose it is necessary to arm with a ruler and attach it to the foot. Size is defined as the maximum distance between the extreme point of the heel and the most prominent finger. This data will allow you to compare the Russian and English shoe sizes.

In Russia, as a unit of measurement, millimeters are used, which, for the convenience of buyers, are most often converted into centimeters. In Britain, manufacturers use inches. At the same time, for a zero size, the length of the foot, characteristic of the newborn, is taken. According to the average statistical data, this figure is 4 inches. To get the next size, you need to add 1/3 of an inch or 8.5 mm to the previous one. Knowing this, it will be easy to correlate Russian and English shoe sizes.

For the convenience of users, special tables have been made that allow you to determine the size of the English footwear, based on the length of the foot. This greatly simplifies the sequence of choosing shoes or sandals.

It should be noted that the English sizes of children's shoes differ from adults or even teenagers. Therefore, if you decide to purchase sneakers for your three-year-old daughter, it is better to follow the length of the foot, rather than the calculated value. So, if your girl's leg is 15 cm, then you will need to purchase 7 size. For women's shoes, it will correspond to a foot equal to 265 mm. If during the shopping you prefer the stihmassovuyu system, in the first example of children's sneakers it is about 24 sizes, and in the second - about 40. However, the length of the foot in this case will be a more reliable way to choose the right pair.

It is also worth noting that English footwear sizes from different manufacturers may differ slightly. In the event that you bought sandals of one well-known brand, and the pair ideally "approached", then before purchasing shoes of another company it is desirable to study the size table again. Quite often there may be slight variations in size, the presence of which can cause the new shoes to be slightly squeezed or to fall off your feet.

Separate attention deserves the fullness of the feet. As you know, it can be very diverse. Many women, whose feet are quite full, abstain from shopping through the Internet precisely because of the fact that it is likely that the new sandals will not fit in full. These ladies should better abandon online services and buy a favorite pair only after careful fitting. Fortunately today you can buy shoes from different manufacturers, without leaving your hometown.
