How to measure your foot and find your perfect Penelope Chilvers shoe size.
Using the table below as a guide, find your closest length, this will indicate the shoe size that you are and your width measurement will give an indication of how slim/standard/wide your foot is.
Remember most people have one foot longer than the other, so it is worth measuring both and going with the longer size.
*Please note this is a guide to give an indication of your EU size. Please follow each product fit advice to buy the correct size for that style.

Due to the artisanal nature of our shoes, sizes between styles can vary. A pop up will alert you if you need to choose a size different to your normal ‘EU size’. If you are alerted about a size change, please take your measured EU size and refer to the size guide to ensure you order the correct size. We offer four main fits; True fit, Mid fit, Generous fit and Petite fit.

How to measure your legs and find your perfect Penelope Chilvers boot size.
Finding the correct fitting boots can sometimes be difficult. For our heritage tassel boot, we now offer two boot heights and two calf sizes for you to find your perfect fit. In this video our founder Penelope Chilvers will explain how to find the correct measurement for your leg length (or ‘shaft height’) and calf width.
When you have found the boot you love, locate the Size Guide, this is found next to the size drop down menu. In the size guide, you will find a table, finding your correct EU size, look at the Shaft Height CM and Calf Width CM. If this measurement is the same or slightly larger than your leg height and calf measurement then it should be a good fit for you.
