European Shoe Size to UK Guide
European shoe sizes use a different scale from UK sizes. A single EU number can map slightly differently depending on gender category, brand and style.
EU to UK adult sizes
For adults, EU sizing is not gendered in exactly the same way as US sizing, but men’s and women’s shoes can still fit differently because of shape and width.
EU to UK kids sizes
Kids EU to UK conversion should include growing room and foot length checks, especially if the child is between sizes.
Common questions
Is EU 40 always UK 7?
Not always. EU 40 is often close to UK 6.5 or UK 7 depending on category and brand.
Why do European to UK size charts differ?
The sizing systems do not align perfectly, so brands round conversions differently.
