One of the biggest fears with buying shoes online is getting the size wrong. It’s happened to all of us — the shoes arrive, they’re either too tight or too loose, and suddenly the excitement of a new purchase turns into a return headache. Here’s how to get it right every single time.
Measure Your Foot the Right Way Place your foot flat on a piece of paper, trace around it, and measure from the tip of your longest toe to the heel. Do this for both feet — most people have one foot slightly larger than the other. Always size for the bigger foot.
Measure in the Evening Your feet naturally expand throughout the day due to activity and heat. Measuring in the evening gives you the most accurate size since that’s when your foot is at its largest. A shoe that fits comfortably at this time will fit well at all times.
Understand the Size Chart Pakistani shoe sizing doesn’t always match UK or US sizing. Before placing any order, always check the specific brand’s size guide. At Danzair, size guides are available on product pages so you can match your measurements exactly before adding to cart.
When in Doubt, Size Up If you’re between two sizes, go with the larger one. You can always use an insole to improve fit on a slightly bigger shoe, but a tight shoe will only cause discomfort — no matter how good it looks.
The Thumb Rule Once the shoe is on, there should be roughly a thumb’s width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. This ensures comfort during walking and prevents long-term foot strain.
Getting your size right the first time means no returns, no waiting, and no disappointment. Follow these steps and your next online shoe purchase from Danzair will be a seamless experience.
