THE BREAK-IN GUIDE
Men’s Shoe Size Guide
Shoescoo dress shoes are handcrafted using specific molds (Code: 2021190) for a precise fit. This guide helps you choose your perfect fit with detailed measurements. All US orders include Free Shipping & Free Returns, so finding your size is completely risk-free.
How Shoescoo Sizing Works
- If you wear Nike / Adidas, usually choose 1 full US size smaller (Dress shoes run larger than sneakers).
- If you wear Allen Edmonds, choose your usual size.
- Shoescoo fits true-to-size (TTS) relative to standard dress shoes.
Quick At-Home Measurement Method
Use this simple method to confirm your size at home:
- Put on the socks you normally wear with dress shoes.
- Stand with your heel touching a straight wall.
- Place a sheet of paper under your foot and mark your longest toe.
- Measure the distance from the wall to the mark in centimeters.
- Important: Your foot length should be approximately 1.5 cm shorter than the "Last Length" shown in the table below for a comfortable fit.
Men’s Size Conversion & Measurement Chart
Note: "Last Length" refers to the interior length of the shoe.
| Shoescoo (US) | Shoescoo (EU) | Last Length (CM) | Ball Width (CM) |

| 7.5 US | 40.5 EU | 27.4 cm | 8.6 cm |

Fit Notes by Style
- Oxfords: Structured fit. If you have a wide foot (check "Ball Width" above), consider sizing up half a size.
- Loafers: Slip-on fit. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size for a snug heel fit.
- Sneakers: Do not compare these measurements to sneakers directly. Sneaker sizes are calculated differently.
