Foot length and how to measure

On Nike's charts, a men's 16.5 fits a foot 32.6 cm long and a women's 16.5 fits 31.7 cm.

Where a maker prints a foot length, for a women's 16.5 it runs from 31.7 cm at Nike to 33 cm at Converse.

To measure, stand on a sheet of paper, mark your heel and the tip of your longest toe, and measure between the marks. Do both feet and use the longer one.
