(These measurements are a guideline only, therefore we cannot guarantee a perfect fit for every body shape. Some fabrics have less stretch than others. This has been taken into consideration when creating our patterns, however it may be beneficial to purchase a sizing set before finalising large orders).
(if followed will give a very firm fit, for growing or comfort room - go up 1 size)
SHOE FITTING
-
Check the product description for fitting details such as; whether a shoe has a wide or narrow fitting, small or generous sizing, and follow accordingly.
-
Check whether shoes are Fractional (US, street size), or Straight (UK, school shoe size )
-
Current regular shoe size and type of shoe.
-
If the foot is narrow, average or wide.
-
Do you wish to have growing room or a firm fit.
-
Measurement of the foot as per information below.
How to Measure Your Feet
- Place a piece of paper on a hard floor
- Place the foot on the paper without pressure (measure sitting down)
- Mark the end of the heel (note the heel is curved and you need to mark the end as per diagram)
- Mark the end of the longest toe
- Measure between these points with a ruler (not tape measure) in cm.
- If you wish you could trace around the foot and also measure the widest part of the foot
Remember to measure both feet as they will differ slightly, for a tight fit go by the smallest measurement and stretch the shoe to the larger foot, or for comfort/growing room go by the largest measurement.
