Sizing is the number one reason for returns in replica shopping. Chinese sizing charts often differ from Western standards, and factories sometimes use their own internal templates. This guide gives you a systematic approach to getting the right fit every time.

Start With Your Foot Length

The most reliable measurement is the length of your foot in centimeters. Stand on a piece of paper, mark the longest toe and the back of your heel, and measure the distance. Do this in the evening when your feet are at their largest.

Pro Tip

Add 0.5cm to your foot length for snug fits, or 1.0cm for relaxed fits. Basketball shoes and boots typically need an extra 0.5cm for sock space.

Factory-Specific Adjustments

Not all factories use the same mold. Some run narrow; others run long. Our spreadsheet includes fit notes for each batch, but here are the general rules we have observed across thousands of orders.

Apparel Sizing

Replica apparel sizing is less standardized than footwear. A "Large" from one factory may fit like a Medium from another. Always check the factory's size chart on the product page and compare against a garment you already own.
