Why do sizes differ between brands?

There is no mandatory international standard — every brand uses its own lasts, so sizes vary by up to half a size. The reliable anchor is foot length in centimetres: measure it and check the specific brand's chart.

How do I measure my foot?

Stand on a sheet of paper in the evening (feet are largest then), mark the furthest point of the heel and the longest toe, and measure the distance. Add ~0.5 cm of room and compare with the cm column in the chart.
