Walking on wrong size shoes isn’t smart

Sizing

Walking on wrong size shoes isn’t smart and either comfortable. This is the reason why we prepared this detailed size guide to allow people to get the right size from the first order. Please read carefully our Return Policy for Custom Made goods.

Size Guide

Our sizing is based on European Standard with some slightly modifications mainly due to our unique design and 40 years experience in custom-made shoes manufacturing.

The sizing chart corresponds to true last measures so any customer can easily evaluate their own fitting and size just measuring their feet length and width.

We suggest to choose the smaller correspondent size because our slip-on are made in order to stretch and adapt to the feet in a very short time. Moreover the lateral buckle can provide an additional adjustment allowing the customer to increase or decrease by 8mm ( 5/16 inch. ) the shoes width making them extremely versatile.

Please see our chart and in case of doubts don’t hesitate to contact us.
