Japan Shoe Size Converter
Japan uses the simplest shoe sizing system in the world — it's based directly on foot length in centimeters. A JP size 27 means the shoe is designed for a 27 cm foot. This system (called Mondopoint in ISO standards) is also used in Korea (in millimeters) and is gaining adoption globally for its clarity.

How Japan Shoe Sizing Works
Japanese shoe sizing measures the foot length in centimeters, rounded to the nearest 0.5 cm. JP 27 = 27 cm foot. There's no gender offset — the same number means the same length. Width is handled separately with letter codes: from A (narrowest) through EEEE (widest). Standard width is EE for men and E for women in Japan.
Sizing Tips
- JP size = your foot length in cm (JP 27 = 27 cm foot)
- No gender offset — JP 27 for men and women is the same length
- Japanese width codes: A (narrow) → E → EE → EEE → EEEE (wide)
- Korean sizes are JP × 10 in millimeters (JP 27 = KR 270)
