Direction

Brands vary. These conversions follow Nike's men's and women's charts (1.5-size gap) and adidas's (1-size gap). Another label can run half a size (or a whole size) different, so if the store publishes its own chart, trust that first. All sources

Questions shoppers ask

How do I convert men's shoe size to women's?

Add 1.5 to the US men's size: a men's 8 is a women's 9.5. This is the rule Nike's charts follow. Some brands, adidas among them, use a one-size gap instead, so a men's 8 is a women's 9 there.

What is a women's 8 in men's?

A US women's 8 is a US men's 6.5 on Nike's chart (6.5 or 7 depending on the brand).

Do UK and EU sizes change between men's and women's?

Mostly no. UK and EU numbers describe the shoe length directly, so a UK 6 is a UK 6 for anyone. Only the US system uses separate men's and women's scales.

What about width?

Men's shoes are cut about one width wider: a men's standard D equals roughly a women's wide D. See the shoe width chart if unisex shoes feel loose or tight.
