No matter which shoe you want to order - just order your usual size and choose "Yes" at item option "Do you want us to verify the ordered size?".

But choose a model that fits your feet dimensions
Not every series of Paleos® adapts to uncommon shaped feet. Please choose the series according to your individual foot shape.
- Paleos®ULTRA (for usual shapes of feet and toes).
- Paleos®CLASSIC (also for different shapes of feet and toes).
- Paleos®URBAN (for every shape of feet and toes).
- Paleos®PROTECT (for every shape of feet and toes).

By the way, there's a size recommendation in every item: please check at tab "FAQ / SIZE".
How do I find my size for pure chain mail shoes?
As our chainmesh shoes (ULTRA, CLASSIC (PURE/PAWS)) do not have a stable shape, the perfect fit depends on length and circumference of the individual foot. For example, one and the same size can fit just as well on a narrow, long foot (EU44) as on a much shorter, wider foot (EU42). For additional recommendations, make sure to click tab FAQ within the corresponding item. Just order your usual size and choose "Yes" at item option "Do you want us to verify the ordered size?". Once we receive your order, we'll be in touch for the further procedure.
How do I find it for those models fitted with outsole?
Sizing of Paleos® with solid outsole (eg series URBAN) corresponds to official standards and the given lengths of bare feet. Keep in mind that the feet splay in the warm and when under pressure (in summer or during sports). The use of insoles, stockings or saver can increase the length and circumference. The shoe must therefore be about 6 - 8 mm (0,236 - 0,315 inch) more in length than your longest bare foot (from the heel to the tip of your longest toe). If you're in between sizes, always choose the larger size. If in doubt, always order the next size up! To make it easy: If you usually wear size 42, please order the Paleos® in size 43!
How to correctly measure the length of the foot?
Carry out the measurement for both feet and proceed with the longest measurement (from heel to the longest toe). Add 6-8 mm (0,236 / 0,315 inch) to it and find this length in below table.
Find your foot length and the size you need
Please don't forget to supplement your measurement by 6-8 mm (0,236 / 0,315 inch) and in case of doubt always choose the next size up.

"Paleos® Size Check" - let us find the ideal size for you
We are pleased that you take adventage our free service to determine your ideal size.
In order to generate your foot tracing(s) as a file (PDF, JPEG, PNG) for upload, please follow below description.
This is what we need from you!
Stand with your bare foot on a sheet of paper. If the format is A4 size and you have the shoe size 44 you can position your foot diagonally onto the sheet. Just make sure that your tracing completely fits in the format. Lean forward and put a bit of pressure on your foot so it flattens a bit and you stand more stable.
Trace the outline around your foot
Now, using a thin pen or pencil (but not a marker), trace the outline of your foot onto the paper. Try to hold the pen as vertically as possible. Even better, let someone do the tracing while you are standing. By holding the pen vertically, you’re making a trace that’s slightly bigger than your foot and that’s exactly what is needed. Note that if you have feet of slightly different size or shape, you should complete this process for BOTH feet so that we can average both tracings and get you the best possible custom fit.
Draw a line and lable it with your foot length
Draw a line from the heel to your longest toe and label it with the length you measured with a ruler.
Add the scale indicators (horizontal and vertical)
A horizontal and vertical scaling aid is very important to us, because we may need to "straighten out" your file before we can compare it with our templates. It is very important to know the horizontal and vertical scaling, especially when you take a picture of the sheet with your camera or smartphone as the size ratio is lost. Draw a straight horizontal and vertical line with a ruler, right next to your tracing. Then mark the distances shown in the graph (horizontally 127 mm / 5 inch - vertically 254 mm / 10 inch). Alternatively, take a picture of the entire sheet and let us know the exact format (A4, US letter, ect.).
Note the following data on the sheet
For proper assignment, your tracings must include your name, your usual shoe size and - if you have already ordered - the corresponding # order number.
Take a picture with your Smartphone
► Take a picture of your result, but please make sure:
► ► The sheet was placed on a dark background.
► ► The sheet must be fully in the picture format.
► ► The sheet must not appear distorted too much!
► ► (Make a shot from above and as vertically as possible).
Or use a scanner / copier
► Scan the result 1:1 and store it as a PNG, JPEG or PDF
