Update: Shoe last outlines are now available to help with shoe sizing. They are available here and you can learn more about them here. And there is also now the option to first order a digital mockup fitting model, which not only saves on the cost of a shoe last, but also on the shoe fabrication costs in the case of fit issues.
Shoe sizing is inconsistent from one brand to another, so it can be difficult to know your shoe size. We follow what we believe to be the most widely accepting sizing. All measurements for shoe lasts can be viewed via the ‘show measurements’ check box on the ordering form. And the insole patterns for standard sized orders can also be viewed prior to purchase here. Note that we no longer provide shoe last sizing recommendations based on foot measurements alone. This is because the shapes of the foot and shoe last also have an impact on what size is best (along with many other factors, like use types and preferences). A tracing could help us make a recommendation, but by the time we start inputting measurements and analyzing tracings and comparing to specific shoe last designs, we’re well along the path of the full bespoke process. So we tend to just suggest bespoke lasts unless you are familiar with what shoe size typically works best for you. More on our ordering system is explained here. And customers with an interest in sizing might consider reading the following resources which could help them decide on a shoe last size on their own:
