How to measure your foot and choose the right size

What to watch out forShoe sizes are not standardised. Every manufacturer builds on a different last, with a different instep height, a different toe shape and a different width. The number from your previous shoes therefore need not apply. The only reliable basis is the length of your foot – measure it before you buy.

Step 1: TracingTake off your socks. Place a sheet of paper against the wall and stand on it so that your heel touches the wall. Trace the outline of your toes with a pencil – hold the pencil exactly vertical, otherwise you will measure too much. Measure both feet, they differ in length, and measure in the late afternoon, when the foot has spread over the course of the day.

Step 2: Measure and find your sizeMeasure the distance from the edge of the paper (the heel) to the longest toe – it need not be the big toe. Go by the longer foot. Find the measured value in cm in the size chart. Do not add anything; LOWA has already included the room needed inside the shoe in the chart.

When trying the shoes on

• Try them on in the socks you will wear with them. On duty and in the field these are considerably thicker socks than for everyday wear.
• If your length falls between two sizes, choose the larger one. A short boot cannot be broken in, a larger one can be adjusted with a sock or an insole.
• Your toes must not hit the front – neither when standing nor when stepping down a stair. The heel must stay in place without lifting.
