How to measure

Measure barefoot in the evening (feet are largest then), heel against a wall, on a sheet of paper. Mark the longest toe and measure to the wall — take the longer of the two feet.

Chart aggregated from Nike, Adidas and Brannock-aligned reference tables for general use. Individual brands (New Balance, Vans, luxury houses) can run ±0.5 size off — always check the brand's own chart.

Formula

Approximate conversions (cm = foot length): US Men ≈ foot_cm − 18 US Women ≈ US Men + 1.5 UK ≈ US Men − 1 EU ≈ (foot_cm + 1.5) × 1.5 (Paris point) JP / CN ≈ foot_cm (Mondopoint)

Frequently asked

Why does the same "US 9" feel different between Nike and New Balance?

A "US 9" doesn't map to one fixed shoe-last length — each brand builds on its own last with its own toe-room and shape, so the actual interior length can differ by 5 mm or more for the same labelled size. The reliable approach: (1) measure your foot length in cm; (2) cross-check that cm against the specific brand's size chart; (3) don't assume "I'm always a US 9".

What's the right way to measure my foot length in cm?

Measure in the evening (feet swell over the day, closer to how they'll sit inside a shoe), barefoot, standing on an A4 sheet with your heel against a wall. Draw a line at the tip of your longest toe (often the big or second toe), then measure from the wall to that line — that's your foot length. Measure both feet and take the longer one; pick a shoe ~5–10 mm longer than that for toe room.

Which size system do shops in Hong Kong typically use?

Depends on the brand. Japanese brands (ASICS, Mizuno, Onitsuka) usually dual-label JP cm + US. Western performance brands (Nike, Adidas, New Balance, Converse) print all four (US / UK / EU / cm) on the box. International luxury and fashion houses (Gucci, LV, Dior) lean on EU. Look for the cm number on the box — it's the least ambiguous and the one you can match directly against your measured foot length.
