Shoe Size Conversion Chart
China / EU size ↔ foot length (mm) ↔ US / UK
In China the everyday sizes — 35, 42, 43 — are the same numbers as EU sizes, and they are different from the millimetres printed on the box. The chart below converts between China/EU size, foot length (mm), US and UK.
Conversion: foot length (mm) = size × 5 + 50. For example, size 42 = 42 × 5 + 50 = 260 mm. The number on a Chinese shoe box (e.g. 260) is exactly this foot length.
