The foot is an extremely complex and fragile structure of our skeleton. And many of us literally trample on these marvels of nature and anatomy because they do bad, inappropriate and unhealthy footwear to them. Do something good for your feet and choose with the help of the size guide for safety shoes the right size when buying your safety shoes.

This advisor will show you how to determine the optimal size and thus safely find the right safety shoe.

To measure the shoe size, stand on a piece of paper in stockings and trace the outline of both feet exactly. The larger foot applies. According to the foot length in cm (measured from the heel to the big toe), you will find your correct shoe size in the table.
