How to Measure Your Foot

Accurate measurements help ensure a comfortable, precise fit – especially for handmade leather shoes crafted with attention to detail. This simple shoe care guide step supports both fit and long-term comfort.

Preparation

• Place your foot on a sheet of paper on a flat surface
• Stand naturally with your weight evenly distributed
• Hold a pencil vertically and trace the outline of your foot

Foot length

• Mark two points: the tip of the big toe and the center of the heel
• Draw a straight line between them and measure the distance

Ball girth (widest part)

• Wrap a measuring tape around the widest part of the foot (where the toes begin)
• Keep the tape snug but not tight, following the natural contour

Instep girth

• Measure around the upper part of the foot at the instep (over the arch)
• Ensure the tape sits evenly without twisting

Diagonal instep

• Place the tape under the heel
• Wrap it diagonally over the instep toward the front of the ankle
• Record the measurement for a more precise fit reference

For boots or high styles

• Measure ankle girth approximately 10–12 cm above the heel
• Continue measuring every 5 cm upward along the leg
• Identify and record the widest part of the calf, along with its height

Taking a few moments to measure carefully helps ensure a more accurate fit and enhances the overall wearing experience.

👉 Tip: we recommend measuring your feet in the evening – this is when they are at their natural size, helping you achieve a more accurate fit.
