📏 How to Measure Your Foot (to Choose the Best Fit)
- Place a piece of paper on the floor.
- Stand on it with your heel against a wall.
- Mark the longest point of your foot (usually your big toe).
- Measure from the wall to the mark in millimetres.
- Match the measurement to the size chart above.
🩰 Helpful Tips for Buying Esthé Shoes
- If your measurement falls between sizes, consider going up a size for comfort — especially for leather shoes that may tighten initially.
- Leather shoes stretch slightly with wear but still require a snug fit at the start.
