MEASURING YOUR FOOT

Sometimes as a second check it is worth measuring your foot. Feet can be different sizes so its worth measuring both and taking the largest.

Standing next to a wall place a piece of paper against the wall. Place your foot on the paper with your heel just touching the wall.

The lengths shown are the Insole lengths (the actual shoe length will be 2 or 3 mm longer).

The next stage is easier if you get someone else to help do it.
Take a pencil or pen and trace the outline of the foot on the paper.
Start at the heel.
Keep the pen at 90 degrees to the paper, so vertical, see diagram.
Don't draw under the foot.

Taking a ruler measure the length of the outline in millimetres. This will be the exact size of the insole you will need. To ensure the fit is not tight add another 5.0 - 10.0 mm to the length. If you wear thick socks then add that thickness to the length.

If possible, please work from the EU sizes (the US and UK sizes are nearest conversions to these sizes so will not be as accurate). The lengths and widths are the dimensions of the insole in mm measured as per the picture below:

Answer

Narrower than other shoes from Freet

First of I love the first two pairs I got from Freet. First time in my life I found the shoes that does not squeeze my feet. I have very wide feet. For some reason York is little bit less roomier than my other pairs. That resulted putting pressure on my left small toe. Shoes stretched little bit so it doesn’t hurt as much as before but not as comfortable as the other pairs. So if you have vey wide feet like me maybe these are not for you. Other than that I think York is great shoes.

Excellent shoes

From the outer sole that has a lot of grip to the softness of the leather, these shoes are really good and well made.

Really nice style and seem comfortable so far!

Going to need some break in time

This is a great show for a casual office environment. However, the leather is a bit stiff out of the box and both my heels were rubbed raw within the first 20 steps. I plan to try to soften it up and with time I’m sure it will be a comfortable shoe.
