How to measure your foot

  1. 1

    Stand on a sheet of paper

    Place the paper against a wall, on a hard floor. Stand with your heel touching the wall and your full weight on the foot.

  2. 2

    Mark heel and longest toe

    Holding the pen upright, mark the back of your heel and the tip of your longest toe (not always the big toe). Wear the socks or tights you dance in.

  3. 3

    Measure the distance

    Measure between the two marks in centimetres. Repeat for the other foot and use the longer measurement.

Tip: measure in the late afternoon or after practice, when feet are at their largest.

How your dance shoes should fit

Latin & Salsa

Snug, like a glove

Open-toe sandals should hold the foot firmly. Toes may sit right at the front edge of the sole. Satin and leather relax with wear, so if you are between sizes, choose the smaller one.

Ballroom & Standard

Close, never tight

Closed court shoes should feel secure with no heel slipping, and your toes should not be pressed against the front. Between sizes? Choose the larger one.

Men's shoes

Firm through the arch

Laced shoes should hug the foot without pinching across the width. Between sizes, choose the larger size and tighten the laces.

Teaching, practice & kids

Comfort first

For long hours on your feet, or for growing feet, allow a little more room: choose the size that matches your measurement, or the next size up.
