Sizing

For the foot-size conscious, we're doing things a little differently - by providing exact measurements of the inside of the boot. In general, keep in mind you may want to go a half size to a full size down due to the last's length and width. 

Measure all of the following with Millimeters. Vee Do Not Uze Ze Inchez In GERMANY!

The main 3 measurements are Last length, last width, and last girth at the widest part of your foot ("ball girth". Don't worry, we giggle every time, too). Most people won't have to worry about "Waist" or "Instep" Girth. 

For length and width, the best method is to trace your foot with the socks you plan to wear on, standing on a piece of paper to derive length and width.

For length, measure from heel to toe in a straight line in millimeters from end to end (not diagonally) You'll want to add at least 5 and up to 12mm to your length measurement. more toe room, more room for expansion throughout the day depending on your activity level.

For width simply measure the widest part of your foot, slightly diagonally.

Keep in mind - Your feet typically expand a couple millimeters just from standing on them all day, and socks make a difference too!

Girth around the "ball" of the foot is another important measurement as it's the most common area of irritation for shoes that don't fit right. take a measuring tape (or string if you don't have one) and measure around the widest part of your foot. 

You should have all the measurements you need to buy the correct size after those steps.

But for even more advanced feet-havers, we provide two more girth measurements, at the "Waist" and "Instep". The instep is (generally) the area that the laces will rest on top of the foot before the ankle, and the "waist" is between the ball and instep. By no means a necessary measurement, but can help for people who know they have unusually tall feet.
