How To Measure Your Feet For Cycling Shoes

Using a three-digit millimeter measurement (e.g., 269mm) is crucial. A less precise measurement, like "26cm," doesn't provide enough detail for an optimal fit.

Step-by-Step Cycle Shoe Measurement Guide

Place a sheet of paper on a hard, flat surface. While wearing the cycling socks you normally ride in, stand on the paper, distributing your weight evenly.

Trace and Mark Your Foot: Carefully trace the outline of your foot. After tracing, use a ruler to draw lines marking the absolute furthest point on all four sides of your foot's outline. This ensures you capture the full dimensions.

Measure Your Foot Length: With a millimetre ruler, measure the longest distance from your heel to your longest toe (this could be your big toe or your second toe). For some brands such as Lake, they advise adding an additional 7mm. Once you have your measurements, refer to the specific brand's cycling shoe size chart, listed on each of our cycling shoe product pages.

Measure Your Foot Width: Use your millimetre ruler to find the widest distance across your foot, from side to side. You do not need to add any extra length to this measurement.

It's common for feet to be slightly different sizes. Repeat steps 1-4 for your other foot. When choosing your cycling shoes, you'll generally want to prioritise the size that comfortably accommodates your larger foot.

For a truly professional fit, we do recommend a trip to one of our stores where you can try various cycle shoes on and test out the fit. Alternatively, speak to our online experts for assistance.
