Shoe Size Converter for UAE Shopping
Compare women’s, men’s and kids’ US, UK and EU shoe sizes or use heel-to-toe length for a starting reference. There is no single official UAE shoe-size system, and the target brand and model chart should always take priority.
Last reviewed: 26 July 2026
Reference only. Shoe fit varies by brand, model, width and shoe last.
Find a Starting Size From Foot Length
Measure the longer foot from heel to longest toe, then enter the length below. When your measurement falls between published reference points, the tool shows the next roomier reference size.

Brand Sizing Notes for UAE Shoppers
Use brand-specific charts and width information instead of assuming every model fits the same way
adidas
Reference Used HereThis page uses adidas UAE’s published footwear charts as one consistent reference. adidas advises choosing one size down for a tighter fit or one size up for a looser fit when between published sizes.
Nike
Use Nike ChartNike publishes its own footwear charts and notes that the CM value printed on a shoe box or label can differ from actual foot length in centimetres. Use Nike’s current model-specific size guide.
New Balance
Check WidthNew Balance publishes both size and width guidance. Left and right feet can differ in length or width, so measure both feet and use the longer and wider measurements where appropriate.
Birkenstock UAE
EU + WidthBirkenstock UAE publishes EU size references with foot length and narrow or regular width ranges. Check both length and width rather than applying a generic “size down” rule.
Level Shoes
Designer-SpecificLevel Shoes is a multi-brand retailer. Designer and model fit can vary, so use the product page’s current size guide and fit notes where available.
Namshi UAE
Multi-BrandNamshi carries many footwear brands and sizing conventions. Confirm the standard shown for the specific item before applying an international conversion.
How to Measure Your Foot
Measure both feet and use the longer measurement as a starting reference
Place Paper on Floor
Put a sheet of paper on a flat floor with the edge against a wall. Make sure the paper doesn't slide.
Stand Against Wall
Stand on the paper with your heel touching the wall. Wear the socks you plan to wear with the shoes.
Mark Longest Toe
Mark the tip of your longest toe on the paper. It may not be your big toe — measure both feet.
Measure in CM
Measure from the wall edge to your mark in centimeters. Use the longer foot's measurement for sizing.
Fit Tip: Measure both feet and use the longer measurement. adidas recommends measuring at the end of the day, when feet are typically at their largest.
Frequently Asked Questions
No single universal UAE shoe-size system applies to every retailer and brand. UAE shoppers commonly encounter EU, US and UK sizes depending on the brand. This tool therefore shows international reference equivalents rather than inventing a separate “UAE size.”
Shoe lasts, toe shape, width, intended use and brand grading can all change fit. Use this converter as a starting reference, then check the specific brand and product size guide before ordering.
Heel-to-toe length is one of the best starting points for online shopping. Enter the longer foot's measurement in the finder above. If your length falls between published reference points, the tool returns the next roomier reference size and clearly labels it as a starting point.
No. Age groups are useful for separating kids' sizing systems, but they should not determine the final size. Measure both feet and use the appropriate Baby & Toddler, Children, or Youth chart because children's growth rates vary substantially.
Start with the specific brand's guidance. In the adidas reference used on this page, the brand advises choosing one size down for a tighter fit or one size up for a looser fit when between sizes. Width and intended use should also influence the decision.
