UK shoe sizing
Permalink Closed

I need some clarification...  I always thought a UK 38 was equivalent to a US  7 - 7.5.  And a UK 37 was equivalent to US 6 - 6.5.  I am trying to bid on a pair of burberry rain boots one ebay that are sold out in all of the burberry stores.  I have never tried them on, but the seller is listing them as UK 37/ US 7.  I emailed him so that he could clarify and he said they will fit someone who is a 6.5 to 7.  Anything larger or smaller he says they will not fit.  Now, I am more of a 7 than 6.5, I could never fit in a 6.5.  So I dont know what to do.  They are so hard to find, and no other ones listed in my size.  They are even rare on ebay.

I think you are getting UK shoes sizes confused with EURO shoe sizes...I am a US 7.5 and a EU 37.5-38, but a UK size 5

Your right rocky... I was getting them confused.  So since they don't come in half sizes, do you think Id be ok with a 37, if im usually a 7, sometimes a 7.5 if the shoes run a little small.

Rocky's right. UK is 5 for your size, 7.   Euro is in 37 for you.  


I think 37 in those boots is right for you since u wear 7, sometimes 7.5  I m sure those rainboots wont be curbed so small.

if you're usually a 7-7.5, the 37 might be tight on you, but then again rain boots might run bigger...if you really love them its worth the risk, you could always relist. good luck!

I have Burberry rainboots, and I usually wear a 7 in US sizes, but I had to go up to a 38 (size 8) because the 37s were a wee bit more snug than I wanted andthey had no half sizes, but I also always wear mine with pretty thick socks.
