Fit tips

Footwear fit is not an exact science. But here are some tips to help you order with confidence.

  1. Measure your feet with or without socks according to the model you are shopping for, and how you intend to wear it.
  2. In case of doubt or between two sizes, round down for sandals, mules and low and high heels, and round up for boots and sneakers.
  3. Keep in mind that your feet can vary according to the temperature, alcohol consumption, and time of day.
