Men's to Women's Shoe Size
Compare approximate men's and women's US printed labels; manufacturer conversions and fit measurements vary.
Label comparison, not a foot-length chart. JP/CM is a printed shoe size label; it is not the length of your foot measured with a ruler. For a measured foot length in cm or inches, open the footwear maker's separate Foot Length or Heel-to-toe chart to choose a size. The US/UK/EU references here are approximate and vary by brand.

Men's and women's US labels vary by maker
The shared table shows one illustrative +1.5 relationship between US men's and US women's shoe labels. Nike's published reference contains that pairing, while other makers may use a different difference.
A printed-size comparison does not mean matching width, toe box or exact measured foot length. Use the product brand's category and unisex chart where available.
How this guidance is checked
These sources support the measurement method and help check real-world variation. They are not presented as one universal brand-size table.
- ISO 19407:2023 — Footwear — Sizing — Conversion of sizing systems — International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Measurement-first footwear methodology and the limitation that cross-system conversions are guidance rather than guaranteed fit.
- Men's Footwear Size Chart — Nike. Manufacturer cross-check showing that foot length, labeled CM values, width, and brand-specific sizing conventions are distinct concepts.
- Footwear Size Guide — adidas. Manufacturer cross-check across heel-to-toe length and US, UK, EU, and Japan-labeled footwear sizes.
