HOW TO MEASURE YOUR FOOT SIZE
Step 2: Mark the end of the longest toe on your foot on the sheet of paper. Then, mark the widest point on the left and right side of the ball of your foot. This will give you an accurate length and width measurement of your foot.
Step 3: Use a ruler to measure the marks you made on the sheet of paper, and this will be your reference for your corresponding size. Consult our handy chart below to find your measurement to size conversion.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between Men’s, Women’s, and Unisex shoe sizing?
Women’s styles will generally say “Women’s” in the name and may only have Women’s sizes listed on the box.
Men’s styles will generally say “Men’s” in the name and may only have a Men’s size selection listed on the box.
Unisex styles aren’t specified in the name. The only way to tell these styles is by the size selection on the style's product page. If a size is Unisex, both “Men’s” and “Women's" sizing options appear.
What if I am in between sizes?
Our shoes and boots are available in whole sizes; if you are in between, we recommend going down to the nearest size. If your footwear is feeling roomy, but the size down is too small, you can customize the fit by adding another layer of our insoles over the existing insole or by attaching heel grips. These products are available from DMs directly.
How do I know if I am wearing the correct size?
Our footwear should feel overall snug at first and be roomier inside the toe box. You should have a little space at the heel, depending on what’s comfortable. Keep in mind, the boot or shoe should still stay in place when you walk. This will help to prevent blisters.
The stiffer the leather, the longer it will take to break in your boots or shoes. If you are still breaking in your boots or shoes, give it some time; it will all be worth it.
What are the best DMs for wide feet?
Our Unisex and Men’s standard fit footwear offers a wider and rounded toe shape, making it ideal for individuals with broader feet.
Our Women’s standard fit styles will fit slightly smaller, and fit closer to traditional Women’s sizing. These styles have a narrower footbed.
For example, if the 1460 Women’s Smooth Leather Lace-Up Boots feel too narrow, we suggest trying the 1460 Smooth Leather Lace-Up Boots in unisex sizing. Many people find that it offers that extra bit of space they need for the best fit.
Where can I find the sizing of my DM’s?
Sizes will be marked inside the tongue of your original Dr. Martens and on the inside the ankle strap of most of our sandal styles. Remember that Made in England Styles will have the UK size listed and not the US size.
