Size Guide | How to Choose the Correct Size

  

Our shoes tend to fit on the smaller side, so consider sizing up for a more comfortable experience. Made in full sizes, so if you are in between sizes, we recommend going up to the nearest whole size.

  
Choose a Size Based on Our Size Guide

We recommend measuring your feet and selecting a size based on this. Make sure you do this during or at the end of the day to ensure the right size (feet typically swell during the day).

  1. Wearing socks, stand on a piece of paper with your feet against the wall. Make a mark at the front of your big toe.

  2. Now measure between the base of the paper to the marked line. It is important to measure both feet, as one may be longer than the other.

  3. Determine the longest measurement and add 1.0 to 1.5 cm to that measurement, depending on your preference for extra space. Select a size from our size chart:
