Sizing tips
- Japanese sizes run smaller than Western sizes — when in doubt, size up
- Japanese shoes are sized in cm — measuring your foot length is the most reliable
- Sizing varies by brand — trust the garment measurements (in cm) on the product page
- Charts are approximate. Since returns are hard across borders, check actual measurements
