Sock Choice: Wear the type of socks or hosiery you plan to use with the shoes, as this can affect the fit.

Brand and Style Variations: Shoe sizes can vary slightly between brands and styles (e.g., athletic shoes vs. dress shoes). Always check the specific product’s size guide if available.

Between Sizes: If your measurement falls between two sizes, consider opting for the larger size for comfort, especially for closed-toe shoes.

Foot Width: Most shoes come in a standard width, but some brands offer narrow (e.g., AA), medium (e.g., B), or wide (e.g., D) options. If you have particularly wide or narrow feet, look for these variations.

Online Shopping: When purchasing shoes online, review the retailer’s return policy in case the fit isn’t as expected.

Foot Differences: If one foot is larger than the other, choose a size that accommodates the bigger foot comfortably.
