General Sizing Tips

The information provided here is intended as a guide only. Please consider your individual circumstances when selecting shoe style and size and ensure you are happy with the fit before using the shoes outdoors.

Size up

We recommend ordering Brooks running shoes 1/2 size to one size larger than normal dress shoes

Select width

For women's footwear, B is the standard width. 2A is narrow, D is wide, and 2E is extra wide. For men's footwear, D is standard, B is narrow, 2E is wide, and 4E is extra wide.

Unisex sizing

Ladies, when ordering "unisex" shoes, order 1.5 sizes smaller than your usual women's size.

Get fit

Whenever possible, visit your local running and walking footwear store for a proper fitting.
