This was very helpful. My poor 85 year old Grandmother never has shoes that actually fit because she can't go in to the shoe store personally. She's currently in the hospital after major surgery, so I hope that we can do this and I know that having a nice, properly fitting pair of shoes will do wonders for her outlook! Again, I thank you for your service, it means a great deal to us! ❤️
Awesome!
Measure both feet. If one is larger or wider then order that size and width. Otherwise you may end up with a shoe on one of your feet that is too short or too narrow.
my foot doesn't fit in the paper😭
Lmao IM SO DEAD 😂😭😭💀
MURICA! Me to
I did and it still did not fit,( my sister was like umm this is not going to trace correctly with your toes & heel off the paper) ..lol I guess i will use longer paper or cardboard from a box..
I had the same problem, but cardboard was an easy solution.
use a legal pad instead of a post it note. ;)
Thanks for confirming that I was doing this correctly lol
I read somewhere that it's a good idea to measure feet at the end of the day as most people's feet swell some over the course of the day...also to wear whatever socks you plan on wearing with the shoes when tracing the foot, cuz depending on what kinda socks you like it could add a bit extra size (;
Edit: p.s. Found your tidbit at the end very interesting...that it's semi common for feet to grow half a size every decade after 40. I did not know that! :o
It is great of you to do this video I have been searching for the answers you have offered THANK YOU!!!
Oh wow ! At 1st I thought oh no not another Dodgy way to flog shoes but your vid clip is absolutely 1st class & all about the customer & the fit ! THANKYOU 😊
Thank you for the great and informative video. Do you happen to have a shoe size chart for Wolverine? I have a pair of Wolverine boots that fit pretty good that are size 11D. I ordered another pair size 10½D that are a bit too tight and small. The only other sizes are 11D or 11EE. What are your thoughts and recommendations? Please advise.
Thanks. Ordering school shoes for my son this is very helpful!
After 9 yrs im watching this🙇🏻♀️
Think you know your correct shoe size? You could be off - a 2011 report published in the Journal of Foot & Ankle Surgery suggests that about 35 percent of people underestimated by at least half a size. Watch this how-to video and measure your feet at home today. #healthyfeet
That's because they watch stupid videos like yours and measure their feet too short!
That was very helpful. Thank you!
Great info. Thank you. All I would add is measure in the evening.
Thank you so much! I just bought some shoes online on your website for work because I just took my feet measurements and found out according to your website sizing chart that I have a 2X Wide foot! I have had a terrible experience with shoes and hoping and praying this is what I need!
How did they work?
@@bw5187 terribly, had to return them or I don’t think i was able to because i had used them for work, they were way too big. so far i’m using keens and needed to just recently get better memory foam inserts from amazon.
@@CastIronGinger I have just figured out that removing the factory insole actually makes the shoes fit better. Almost like we've been brainwashed into thinking you need an insole. A custom insole is of course nice to have if your shoes are not comfortable or you actually need the insoles.
thank you so much. VERY helpful!!!! :-) I wonder if you would tell us how we can tell what size a SHOE is when it does not have a size on it? Thanks for any help.
Lol my foot length is exactly the piece of paper
😂😂😂
You are a big foot😮😮
My! What big feet you have! Or maybe that's a small piece of paper. Just kidding!
11 inch piece of paper is size 11 shoe :)
@@steverocksyo are you sure you weren't using a post it note
Excellent video. Excellent information.
Now if you guys can tell me how to shrink a shoe's width, I will be in business with this pair of shoes I'd bought before seeing this video.
Fantastic job, thank you!!
Yeah I’m watching this so I can order online and not go out due to the Corona virus. Yeah this is 2020 guys!!
Damari Estrada Me too,
same lol
I'm watching so maybe I can measure my 6 yr old so my mama (in anpther state) can send him shoes. Think I'm goning to measure my own as well so I can order me a pair.
Same here!
hahaha.. same

thanks, this really helped, i didnt know if i was a wide or xwide...
Thanks for the vide....Love your hair, btw!
If only they link in the description make my life more easier mine is size 9 wide feet
My feet have gone up 2 sizes since my teens. Swelling, gaining/losing weight, and over all getting beat down by life has stretched out my feet. 😅I’m definitely not blessed with cute small feet. Mine are almost the same size as my husband’s. Sometimes when we both like the same shoe, I order it in my husband’s shoe size so he can wear them when he wants to. I just throw an insole or two into the shoe if it’s loose on me from him stretching them out. 😅
Thx for the tips!
What’s the most accurate type of measure? All these types of systems are confusing me.
Eg. Us, uk, jp...
For me, I always buy US 12 regardless of brands. Sometimes they fit well, sometimes not. Buying shoes online is a gamble
Very simple. Thank you
It would have been helpful if you just provided the link to the sizing chart in the description or as an annotation on screen.
So True!
Very helpful; thank you!
Thank u , so useful , will start follow the instructions … greetings from 🇬🇧
Thank you for this video!!
I am looking for a seba inline skates..my size in Bally and Clark's and sebago is 9.5 uk..10 us 44 eu ..in Nike and Reebok I wear 10.5 us and 44.5 eu..what do u think in the skates??..
If your foot is not 3 5/8 but instead. 3& 3/4th with out a sock and 4" with a sock do we round up for an ( "E" Extra Wide) ???
THANKYOU FOR POSTING !!!
are each shoe tailored to thee unique size of each foot, more specifically my left foot measure 10 ½" but my right for mearsurse at 10.0 on the nose. Would I get 2 different sized shoes to accurately fit my feet one set of 10 ½ shoethat accommodate both feet or a set measured in between at 10 ¼ ...a little snug for one and a liitle loose for the outher. I've always bee confused about this - appreciate if you can she light to.Thank you!

What about if I want to wear really thick socks? Should I size with or without the socks?
some websites are asking for your "shoes size" instead of "feet size" which makes it even more confusing. The shoes are obviously bigger than your own feet.
I found that it's complete off. Based on my measure, I am like a size 7, but I wear 8.5 or 9 in mens
yes! this is shit, my rule says 11 and all my shoes are 8.5 to 9.5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And what brand of shoe are you wearing coz not all shoe brand does not have the exact size like us 8 of filas and nikes as example.
@@JohnSmith-zl8rz Did you forget to consult the conversion chart?
@@JohnSmith-zl8rz to me it depends on the brand. and the materials of the shoe itself.
@CasualDude I'm actual a half inch shorter when doing it your way, standing against the wall.
thank you!!
I have long toes so if I order the correct length the widest part of my foot (ball) will not line up with the widest part of the shoe.
Finally I found what I need to know! Thank you so much!
Very useful information. Thank you.
Good tips and common sense instructions. But if you take these ‘steps’ to measure your feet carefully, order the size indicated, and the shoes may or may not fit. Between the manufacturing processes and conversion between US and metric (even though this should be simple math), there are discrepancies. Athletic shoes are the worst. A ‘D’ width in one shoe is worthless if the toe box tapers so drastically that your toes get crunched. So make sure you can return the shoes if they don’t fit.
Ok i got men us8.5 width is 4inch so is the 4e the size that i should order? Im bout to order nike defy all day 4e
My feet are 28 cm. An online shoe size converter says I’m UK size 9 but size 9 is too small. Size 11 is perfect but apparently I ain’t a size 11. I don’t get it.
Thanks it is very helpful
this is wrong. the way you traced your feet did not get the edge of the protruding heel making an error of about 1.5cm to 2cm.
Thanks and I love your hairstyle.
It's an emo cut. (｡♡‿♡｡)
"as closely as possible" (adds 1/8" to foot by not being close)
It's just a demo
my size is 8.5 us and width size is 11 cm , what should i take 2e or 4e ?
I got a size 7.5 umm idk if that‘a going to fit all of my shoes are 8,8.5,and 9
I measured my feet and it’s exactly 26cm from the front to heel (longest point). I noticed that EUR size 42 is coincidentally 26cm as well. Does this mean I should opt for this size or increase 1 size up (0.5cm longer).
Wear whats comfy.
I see many of these foot tracing videos. 99% have the same error. should place the edge of the paper against a wall and then your heel against the wall. then measure from edge of paper. eliminates the chance of error on that end. then hold a ruler square against the longest toe, pull your foot away and mark the inside edge of the ruler. this is now accurate to within 1/8" which is a half shoe size. Why we have such incremental measurements for shoe size has never made sense to me.
I think it's crazy that we measure shoes down to a 1/8" fit making only a half size difference. 11 1/8" is a size 11.5 and 11 1/4" is a 12. So just a 1/4" is a full shoe size difference do we really need half sizes??. Especially considering different brands of shoes can differ from these standards and even within the same brand.Or even other charts found on line can have very minor differences. Case in point, my 11 1/4" foot makes me a size 12. On one particular Asics running shoe, a 12 gives me the thumb width toe room recommended (even though it's customary to buy running shoes 1/2 size up) and yet, a different model Asics shoe also in 12 gives me no wiggle room. They "feel" like an 11, no thumb room at all. Oredering shoes online is a fit crapshoot. I can order the same brand/model running shoe and know I'm ok, until the tweak the model and that could changed the fitment. I also have a 4 1/4 width, that based on the chart referenced in this video is a D. All my life I thought I was a D. But on a Brannock Device, my width is right in the middle of a B/C. That's a 1/2" smaller than a D. When I lace dress shoes the material over the tongue pulls together and meets. On my running shoes the material bunches slightly which tells me after all these years the Brannock Device is right. I'm not a D, I'm a B/C but the chart still says I am a D. I think we need to trash the whole shoe size thing and go by actual inches measurements.If your foot is 11 inches, buy a 12 inch shoe to have room. My waist is 34". I buy pants with a 34" waste. Seems so simple doesn't it?
I don't want a shoe that is one inch too big for me. But you might be onto something.
Dude can you make a video
make a video im confused
video pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease
Jeff Flowers so y didn5 u make the video
What about circumference high instep sizing
Helpful. Thank you.
This video along with Amazooon try before you buy really helped me get a better fit. Turns out I am 11 wide not 12 normal. Although I feel less manly, my feet are happier now :)
width > length
I got shoes that my size still feel tight or the width tight
My foot length is 23 then i should choose the same size or long half cm
On the page I found this on it's a bit hard to find the length chart, you might want to make it more obvious
thanks alot..
very helpfull
You're awesome!
If y’all have the same issue where the feet curve in just use a ruler next to it and then get those measurements
This will really help me to buy online shoes

How we pick right size for point toe pump heel?
Depends on how much blood you want in your shoes. Seriously, I buy a 1.5 size bigger but, I have Fred Flintstone feet (square and fat)
I uasualy take a 9and half but I take a size 10 i n hotter shoes? Must say they are the most comfy shoes I've had , since bought another pair sold on them but they aren't true to size
My feet are 25.5cm. Which shoe size should I choose ( new balance ) ? Help me , please !!!
"Usually the widest part across will be the ball of the foot" I cannot imagine even one unusual scenario where that's not the widest part .. Lol
Can anyone recommend a wide shoe. I’ve tried everything including newbalance and the like. My pinky toe alwyas is pinched. Please help :( :(
Why didn’t you show the Men’s shoe sizes chart?! 😭
Did you take all the weight off the back foot? Do you put all your weight on the foot you are measuring?
This video was super helpful thank you for making it I did not know my own shoe size I thought I was a nine and a half I I was wrong I'm 11
yea I got size 5 by doing this and my 6.5's are getting too small :/
Thanks!
Thanks for this..
In Hungary, you can't buy shoes with different width size. All shoes too narrow for me and some of shoes too flat. If I want good width, I could need two size bigger shoe, but that too long for me. :(
Curious ..measuring one or both feet ..?
My McAfee blocked the displayed webpage for the size chart as "Risky".
your website is not working right for me. not loading. when it does load its not looking good.
How closely to foot do you trace?
She's super cuuute.
Wow no link in description....you know how hard it is to type urls on a small phone for me?
What if I want to buy new Jungle boots....should I messure with socks?
thank u so much yay i am 6.5
how many inches are in a millimeter?
Great way to measure feet at home by using paper. Easy and Simple way.
I ended up with 6 1/2 6e always being told to wear a 6 or 6 1/2 wide but they never fit quite right always too tight on top or on the sides. Hurt my arches and everything this sure explains a lot. Stores are just looking to sell instead of thinking about your health.
I'm a 3E at the most conservative. No wonder I have such trouble fitting into Medium shoes. Many sizes to small!
If I wear a 7 1/2 can I wear a kids shoe?
This is a very informative video, but I sure could have used some more images of her beautiful feet. One little glimpse of these adorable feet is not enough!
Explains why my shoes never fit properly based on this method I’m a 9.5 and a 5E, 6E
Who did this to get some shoes online.
Is this US size chart??
Nice!
im 12 years old and have a mens size 10 shoe size, is that big?
But shouldn't you get a shoe a bit bigger than your foot rather than the exact size?
yay i did it. im a 6.5.
Lol same. My feet are smol. 😔
6.5 is small? Try 2.5... my friends kids have bigger feet than me-
This says my foot is 11 inches I wear size 14-15 shoe
Ever consider the fact that you might be wearing a size too big?
I went out to 3 different stores, one didn't have the metal device & the other 2 didn't want to measure because of the virus even though I had thick socks on cause I need a new pair of sneakers, also the employee telling me this wasn't wearing a mask.
good information
what of meh foot don't fit on the Paper
