This shoe fits large: consider a smaller size

The best guide for sizing your new Freet shoes is to start with your usual shoe size. Think about whether you always take this size or whether you sometimes need to go smaller or larger.

Customer feedback is that this style fits large to size; if you sometimes have to go down a size, it is more likely that you may need to go down a size with this style.

Our shoes are originally produced in EU sizes. All US sizes are the closest conversion so, if you know your EU size, you may want to consider using this.

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).

Sizing & Fitting Help

Measuring Your Foot
  • 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.
Keep pencil verical
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.

Measuring your outline

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:

Bought a second pair

Like another, I bought a second pair in case they stop making them. I also sized down. These are some of the comfiest shoes I own and I love the style.

Love them!

I actually went down a size for these as the reviews suggested and found that they were just the right fit.
My only regret is that they're not waterproof or resistant!

These shoes are so comfortable

These shoes are so comfortable. My first trip out in them was a 7k walk and not a pinch or blister!!
Definitely take notice of reviews regarding size, though. I am a firm 8 and went down to a 7, still leaving room for an insole and a thick sock! Having said that they are stylish, comfortable and my friends now want a pair! 😎

Light weight hiking shoe.

Got the Swale's on sale. Be sure to order a size down. I ordered a size 10 vs. my normal size 11. Still plenty of room in the forefoot. Nice big lugs on the sole compared to the Xero's I normally wear. Should be a good summer hiking shoe.

My favourite shoes

This shoe is perfect for me and my needs. I live in an area with a lot of ticks, so having a closed shoe that is still light weight enough to wear most of the three warmer seasons is highly appreciated. The shoe is on the larger side lengthwise and is relatively wide, which fits my feet.
