Shoes Size Guide

Men’s Footwear Size Guide (UK to EU)

Finding the right fit shouldn't be complicated, so we've put together this quick UK to EU size guide to help you choose with confidence. Because sizing can vary slightly between styles, particularly across our loafers, derby shoes, monk shoes and work shoes, this chart gives you a reliable starting point whenever you're unsure. Simply match your usual UK size against its EU equivalent below, and if you fall between two sizes, we'd recommend sizing up for a more comfortable, all-day fit. Our shoes are built with a cushioned Ortholite insole, which support your feet in comfort and adds a touch of flexibility to the fit. Since feet often differ slightly from one to the other, it helps to measure both and size for the larger. Still unsure which size suits you? Our customer care team is always on hand to help before you buy.

How to Choose the Right Size

When converting men’s UK shoe sizes to EU sizes, the general rule is:

EU Size = UK Size + 33

For example:

UK 8 → EU 42

UK 9 → EU 43

However, sizing can vary slightly depending on the brand and shoe style, so it’s always a good idea to double-check before purchasing.

Measuring Your Foot (Best Practice)

To ensure the best fit:

  1. Place your foot flat on a piece of paper
  2. Mark the heel and the tip of your longest toe
  3. Measure the distance in cm
  4. Compare it with the brand’s size chart

This method is especially helpful when buying men’s boots, leather shoes, or sneakers online.
