jm88 said: Shoe sizes in US sizing go up about a quarter inch each size. Size 3 is about 8.875 inches, and if you scale up from there you get size 42US as being a foot 18.625 inches long (quite literally a foot and a half).

Actually on the US scale, there are 3 sizes to an inch, not 4, and size 14 is 12” long on the inside of the shoe. This means that size 42 US has an interior length of 21.33”.

6-5/8” longer than my foot which would put it 21-1/4” long.

To put the size in perspective here is a web site showing a size 45 against a size 13.

IS that really just a size 45? It’s more than twice as big as the size 13. If the size 13 is 12 1/2’‘ long, so the shoe sized 45 has to be over 25’‘ long.
That can’t be correct, can it?

No, it’s not correct. Doubling the shoe size doesn’t mean doubling the length. If you read my comment above, then you will be able to calculate the inside length of a size 45 shoe to be 22.333”.

well, so it’s more than a size 45 isn’t it? I guess it’s about size 55, correct?

Oh and if you didn’t know, in the EU system doubling the shoe size really means doubling the length. A size 45 is 30CM long, a size 90 would be 60CM long(1 size is 2/3 CM).

The story says it’s a size 45, and there are many such stories on different sneaker blogs about this same shoe that was released by Puma. Why do you think that it’s not actually a 45?

Here is a link that will let you put in a shoe size to get the length of a foot or put in the length of a foot to get the shoe size.

If you push F2 on the key board, it will open a converting tool (cm/inches/EU size etc..)
