Measuring Guide Instructions
HOW DO I TAKE MY OWN MEASUREMENTS?
When buying a custom-made boot, one of the most important things you’ll need to do is taking accurately measurements.
When taking the measurements be sure to:
- Send all the measurements in Cm (Centimeters);
- Wear your suit or something similar (Especially if it have padded calves);
- Ask someone to take the measurements to you;
- PLEASE, don’t add any room.
STEP TWO – FOOT LENGHT
Have a friend draw a line tracing your foot. You can do this yourself, but you risk a slightly less accurate measurement.
STEP THREE – FOOT LENGHT
Measure the maximum length of both of your feet. The length of the longer foot will be decisive for determining what shoe size you need. And don’t forget: All the measurements in CM PLEASE!
STEP FOUR – FOOT WIDTH
Measure the width of your feet parallel to the short edge of the sheet of paper. So do not measure the width diagonally from widest point to widest point, that will skew the result not precise.
STEP FIVE – CALF CIRCUMFERENCE
Sit on a chair and hold your bare foot down, holding your leg folded to 90 degrees, in this position with the tape measure the circumference of the calf at its widest point, laying the tape on your skin without tightening. Measure the circumference of both your legs, always consider the widest of measurements in case of differences.
STEP SIX – ANKLE CIRCUMFERENCE
Measure around the narrowest part of the ankle, which is normally just above the ankle bone.
STEP SEVEN – CALF HEIGHT
Sit on a chair and hold your naked foot on the ground, holding your leg folded to 90 degrees, with the tape measure the external side of the calf, starting from the base of the foot to the bend of your knee.
Put your finger right behind your knee and make sure the measure you consider for your calf height is not higher than that.
