Questions
Which length does Vans's size chart list?
Vans's charts give these lengths — Unisex shoes (men's and women's): CM: size in cm, given by the brand as foot length · JP: size in cm, given by the brand as foot length; Youth shoes, Kids' shoes, Toddlers' shoes: CM: size in cm, given by the brand as foot length. A measured foot length and a size in cm are about 8 mm apart for the same size, so compare your own foot length only with a column on the same scale.
Does the official chart tell me how a Vans shoe will fit?
Only in part. The chart gives the length each size is meant for; how a particular model fits also depends on its last, width and materials, which the chart does not show. Vans itself advises: Measure from your heel (against a wall) to the tip of your longest toe, which is not always the big toe.
When should I not compare Vans sizes with another brand?
When the two charts list different lengths. A measured foot length and a size in cm are about 8 mm apart, and the length of a foot is not the inside length of a shoe, so such a match can be half a size or more off. The converter matches only lengths on the same scale and lists the other brands separately.
When was Vans's chart last checked?
On 2026-10-24, against Vans's official size guide linked under each chart. The date changes only when the chart is checked again against the official page or its numbers change, not when this page's layout or wording changes.
