The different methods in measuring shoes between UK, EU, USA and other countries (like China) makes shopping online for shoes a minefield.
Would anyone be able to tell me what is the HEEL to TOE of a size 13 shoe in USA in cm. That is measuring the actual shoe upside down from Heel to Toe. Many stores ask for your heel to toe FOOT measurement and then produce a shoe saying it will fit but they never give the measurement of the actual shoe. Hope someone can help.

This page has a shoe size chart that converts to inches/centimetres and up to US size 18 for men...

Hope it helps.
It depends on the style of the shoe. If it's got pointy toes it'll be longer than a ballet pump, for example. Best to measure the foot.
I'm assuming that as porkchop is male, toes wont be too pointy...;-)
Oh yes, no ballet pumps either then :)

But then...you never know...;-0
You can convert heel-to-toe measurements (in inches) to US, UK and EU sizes from this chart:

That chart is designed for use with one of these

but, with careful measurement, there's no reason why you can't just use a rule.

Using that chart matches US 'Size 13' against '11-and-11/16' of an inch = 29.7cm (to the nearest mm)
Question Author
I am a male! I guess that there are very few females who would wear size 13 but then again !!!
I find that there's neither rhyme nor reason in shoe sizes within the UK, they vary from shop to shop.
