How to Measure Your Shoe Size and Width at Home

How to Measure your Shoe Size and Width at Home
Step by step: Detailed explanation, how to measure your shoe size and width at home
  1. Measure your feet in the afternoon or evening because they expand after a day of walking and standing. Measuring in the morning may lead to buying shoes that are too small.
  2. Place your foot on a sheet of paper on the floor. Secure the paper with tape to prevent it from moving.
  3. Use a pen to draw the outline of your foot. Make sure the pen is straight up, perpendicular to the paper.
  4. Find the longest point from your heel to your longest toe and measure this distance.
  5. Use this measurement with a shoe size chart or calculator to find your correct shoe size.
  6. Tip: If shoes often feel tight, measure both feet and use the measurement of the larger foot for shoe shopping. If there’s a big difference between your feet’s sizes, consider custom shoes or insoles.
