Find the right size
How do I determine the right shoe size?
Basically, you should not only let your eyes decide which shoes you choose. You must feel maximum walking comfort with your feet.
How do I measure my foot size?
Stand in stockings with both feet on a sheet of paper and trace the outline of your feet with a pencil. On the drawing, measure the length of your foot from the longest toe to the heel and compare the length to the chart on the left. If your feet are different sizes, use the information for the larger foot.
How do I convert the shoe size?
At BÄR we use the international measurements for shoe sizes. If you only have one German shoe size available, simply read off the corresponding international size in the table on the left. If you have an "in-between" size that is not included in the table, simply select the next higher international size.
