Quick answer: US to India shoe size conversion
Indian shoe sizes follow the UK system. Men's: US = India + 1 (US 11 = India 10). Women's: US = India + 2 (US 8 = India 6). Foot length in cm is the most reliable cross-check.
Most searched: US 10 = India 9 · US 11 = India 10 · US 9 = India 8 (men's) · Women's US 8 = India 6 = EU 39 · 27 cm ≈ India 9 · 28 cm ≈ India 10.

US shoe widths (D, 2E, 4E) explained
US-imported shoes carry a width letter Indian retail never shows. Each width step adds roughly 5 mm across the ball of the foot at the same length. If standard shoes pinch across the toes but your toes don't touch the front, you need a wider fitting — not a longer shoe.
| Men's width | Meaning | In India |
|---|---|---|
| B | Narrow | Not sold in Indian retail |
| D | Standard / Medium | The width Indian shops sell |
| 2E (EE) | Wide | Rare in India — import advantage |
| 4E (EEEE) | Extra wide | Not sold in Indian retail |
| Women's width | Meaning | In India |
|---|---|---|
| 2A (AA) | Narrow | Not sold in Indian retail |
| B | Standard / Medium | The width Indian shops sell |
| D | Wide | Rare in India |
| 2E | Extra wide | Not sold in Indian retail |
How US shoe brands fit
Same size number, different fit — every brand cuts to its own last. Compiled from the brands' own charts and "runs small / runs large" review consensus; check recent reviews for the specific model.
| Brand | Fit note | What to order |
|---|---|---|
| Nike | Runs about ½ size small and narrow, especially runners | Size up ½ from your measured US size |
| Adidas | Generally true to size; some styles run long with a narrow toe box | Your measured US size |
| New Balance | True to size; widest width range (B–4E) of any brand | Your measured US size — pick width deliberately |
| Converse (Chuck Taylor) | Runs ½–1 size large | Size down ½ |
| Vans | True to size | Your measured US size |
| Skechers | Slightly roomy; wide options common | True to size, or ½ down for a snug fit |
| Crocs | Roomy, whole sizes only | Size down if between sizes |
Kids' US to India shoe sizes
Baby and toddler shoes are unisex; India follows the UK system for kids too. At 18-24 months US and India coincide at size 7 — everywhere else, measure the foot in cm.
| Age | Foot length (cm) | US | India / UK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–3mo | 8.0–8.5 | 1 (1C) | 0-1 |
| 3–6mo | 8.5–9.5 | 2 (2C) | 1 |
| 6–9mo | 9.5–10.0 | 3 (3C) | 2 |
| 9–12mo | 10.5–11.0 | 4 (4C) | 3 |
| 12–15mo | 11.5–12.0 | 5 (5C) | 4 |
| 15–18mo | 12.0–12.5 | 6 (6C) | 5 |
| 18–24mo | 13.0–13.5 | 7 (7C) | 7 |
From age 3, boys' and girls' sizing diverges slightly:
| Age | Boys | Girls |
|---|---|---|
| 3 yr | US 8-10C · UK/IN 7-9 | US 8-9C · UK/IN 7-8 |
| 4 yr | US 10-11C · UK/IN 9-10 | US 10C · UK/IN 9 |
| 5 yr | US 11-11.5C · UK/IN 10-10.5 | US 11-11.5C · UK/IN 10-10.5 |
| 6 yr | US 12-13C · UK/IN 11-12 | US 12-13C · UK/IN 11 |

How to measure your foot at home
1. Trace: stand on a sheet of paper and mark the back of your heel and the tip of your longest toe. 2. Measure: the distance between the marks in centimeters is your foot length. 3. Use the larger foot, measured at the end of the day when feet are fullest — then read your size off the charts above, rounding up between sizes.

What shoe size is 27 cm in India?
27 cm foot length ≈ Indian men's 9 (UK 9 / US 10 / EU 43). For women, 27 cm ≈ Indian / UK 8, US 10. Between measurements, round up.
Are Indian and UK shoe sizes the same?
For men, yes — identical (UK 9 = Indian 9); India kept the British barleycorn scale. Women's labelling varies by retailer: some Indian brands print the UK-derived number, many print the EU number. Foot length in cm is the only cross-check that never lies.
How do I measure my shoe size at home?
Stand on a sheet of paper, mark the back of your heel and the tip of your longest toe, and measure the distance in centimeters. Measure both feet, use the larger one, and measure at the end of the day when feet are fullest. Then read your size off the charts above.
Do US shoe brands come in wide sizes in India?
Through imports, yes. New Balance, Skechers, Brooks and ASICS make 2E (wide) and 4E (extra-wide) versions of most running and walking shoes — widths Indian retail essentially never stocks. Order your normal length in the wider fitting instead of sizing up.
Should I order running shoes a size bigger?
About half a size up from your measured size is the common runner's rule — feet swell on long runs and you want a thumb's width in the toe box. Add the brand offset on top: in Nike that often means a full size above your Indian casual-shoe number.
