[QUOTE="JabbaPapa, post: 1008926, member: 195"] US and UK sizes are more or less 1:1 -- a US shoe size is very marginally shorter than a UK size, so my French size 50 army boots are size 14½ UK, size 15½-16½ US -- but smaller, more normal sizes are near identical. The "one size larger" advice I've heard has always been relative to European sizes (because it first became current long before there were that many US pilgrims, and decades before the release of [I]The Way[/I] !!), which would translate to ½ size larger UK or US ; and in the UK, "one size larger" is often used as equivalent to "the next size up", i.e. a half-size. (Clothes sizes are the other way 'round -- so a US 2XL t-shirt is equivalent to a European 3XL one.) Expressing it as "the next size up" might be less confusing. [/QUOTE]
