This shoe fits true to size
The best guide for sizing your new Freet shoes is to start with your usual shoe size. Think about whether you always take this size or whether you sometimes need to go smaller or larger.
Customer feedback is that this style fits true to size; so order your normal size.
Our shoes are originally produced in EU sizes. All UK sizes are the closest conversion so, if you know your EU size, you may want to consider using this.
It is vital that you allow at least 5mm extra at the front of the shoe. For example; your foot is 248mm long. You will likely need size EU40 to allow enough free space at the end of your shoe.
The lengths shown are the Insole lengths (the actual shoe length will be 2 or 3 mm longer).

Measuring Your Foot
Sometimes as a second check it is worth measuring your foot. Feet can be different sizes so its worth measuring both and taking the largest.
Standing next to a wall place a piece of paper against the wall. Place your foot on the paper with your heel just touching the wall.
- The next stage is easier if you get someone else to help do it.
- Take a pencil or pen and trace the outline of the foot on the paper.
- Start at the heel.
- Keep the pen at 90 degrees to the paper, so vertical, see diagram.
- Don't draw under the foot.
If possible, please work from the EU sizes (the US and UK sizes are nearest conversions to these sizes so will not be as accurate). The lengths and widths are the dimensions of the insole in mm measured as per the picture below:

If tieing more securely it gets uncomfortable in couple minutes, starts to itch and hurt top of the feet where the laces are, when wearing lose its better but not so secure, and also the sole is quite rigid and loud, feels cheap, otherwise comfy and easy to put on and take off
These have become my do anything shoe. A pair of slippers, shoes to pop down the shops or go for a walk in. Like all the Freet footwear I own, they are extremely comfortable and fit well. I also think they look good too!
Very comfortable, easy to slip on and off. I love the feeling of space that my feet have when wearing these. Because they are so light I carry them on hiking trips to use in the evening, so nice to slip these on after a day in walking boots. Excellent customer service too.
