Shoe Sizes in Spain

We all know the shoe sizes in Spain. The numbering is divided into three categories.

• Woman – Women’s sizes range from 35 to 41. Size 35 is equivalent to 22.4 cm and 41, 26.4 cm. The interval between sizes is 0.7 cm, that is, for every this number of centimeters, we increase the size of our foot by one number.
• Man – The sizes of men’s shoes in Spain are based on centimeters, like the women’s footwear line, but it has some variations. Well, the interval of number of centimeters between number and number is not equal or constant as in the previous case. In this case the centimeters vary.
• Child – In the case of children’s shoe sizes we have the same problem, since the interval of centimeters is not exact either. Although in this case, it is best to try on the shoe or choose a number a little larger because children grow constantly and in a short time that shoe will no longer fit them well.

What is My Shoe Size?

In addition to this, we have to take into account that the sizes may vary depending on the manufacturer, brand, type of footwear, etc.

It will not be the same number in a sports shoe, as the one you will have in a ceremony shoe.

One of the best ways to solve this problem and be able to buy online or in foreign countries is to measure our foot. In this way we will make sure to buy the correct number and we will be much more comfortable with our shoes.

For this solution to be effective we have to know how to measure our foot correctly.

How to measure our foot? Very simple, we just have to follow these steps:

1- First place a sheet on the floor and place your foot on top.
2- Then make a mark with the help of a pencil at the beginning and end of your foot. We recommend that you repeat the same process with the other foot.
3- Next, with the help of a meter, measure the distance between both marks. That’s it, you already have the exact measurement of your feet.

If the measurement of your foot is between two sizes, always choose the larger size.

Why? Very easy! Because if you choose a larger number, you can insert an insole and you can use your shoes without problem, but if you choose the small one, forget about putting on those shoes without suffering.

UK Shoe Size Equivalence

The shoe sizes in the United Kingdom are also divided into the categories of men, women and children.

In the female line the numbers go from 1 to 7, with 1 being 35 in Spain and 7 being 41 in our country.

In the masculine, from 5 to 12 in the United Kingdom and 39 and 46 in Spain, respectively.

Finally, as always, in the children’s line it is also more complicated. In Spain, the sizes between 21 to 28 are equivalent to the interval of 7.5 to 13 in the United Kingdom; and sizes 28 to 37 in Spain, are equivalent to the interval of 1 to 7 in the English country. We must take into account that the interval in children’s sizes are not constant, they vary as happens in the Spanish size.

Just in case you have any questions, here is a UK equivalence table so you can buy the shoe you want without doubting your size:

USA Shoe Size Equivalence

In the case of the USA, the same thing happens as in the rest. They are divided by the same categories, but the numbers are totally different than in Europe (size by which Spain is governed) and the United Kingdom.

In the United States, the numbers in the female category that are known here from 35 to 41, on the other side of the pond are sized from 4 to 10.

The gentleman’s line that in our country is sized from 39 to 46, in the USA is sized from 6 to 13 and, finally, the children’s numbers from 21 to 27 are sized from 8 to 13.

In the case of children’s footwear the numbers do not evolve equitably.

Therefore, as in previous cases to quickly and easily discover the number of your foot and its equivalence in the United States, we leave you the following tables corresponding to shoe sizes for women, men and children:

We want to remind you that you should keep in mind that these tables are indicative since it may vary depending on the manufacturer and the model of the shoe.

Baerchi Shoe Sizes

Within Baerchi footwear we find two types of sizes, men’s and women’s.

These sizes are governed by the measurement of the length of the sole of the foot in centimeters. Likewise, the interval between each number is 0.66 cm.

This means that if number 41 in men’s dress footwear measures 28.60 cm; 42 will be 29.27 cm and so on. In the sport and comfort categories, the equivalence is the same.

In the case of women’s sizes we have the same situation. Therefore the equivalence of a number 38 is 26.11 cm; 39 would be 26.77 cm; thus the interval between each number would also be 0.66 cm.

In case you have any questions, as in the previous cases, we leave you some tables that will solve all your questions regarding Baerchi shoe sizes.
