Red Wing Shoe Size Chart

Red Wing's own published size chart, covering a 21.5cm to 34cm foot. Every figure below is keyed to a measured foot length rather than converted from another size number. Open the calculator with Red Wing selected to read it against all 35 brands at once.

Does Red Wing run small?

No. By its own size chart, Red Wing sizes in line with most brands in both men's and women's sizes. A 27 cm foot is a men's US 9 in Red Wing and in 22 of 34 other brands' charts. Charts show how a brand means its sizes to fit, not how any one shoe feels, so read Red Wing's own fit advice below as well.

How this is worked out: every foot length from 25 to 29 cm (men's) and 22.5 to 26 cm (women's), in 1 mm steps, is read against Red Wing's chart and the other 34 brands' charts the way the calculator reads them, rounding up between sizes. The answer is the average gap between Red Wing's size and the size the other brands give most often. See the methodology.

Red Wing kids' sizing

Red Wing does not publish a children's chart distinct from the standard youth scale, so we show the general children's progression rather than presenting it as Red Wing-specific. See the international shoe size chart for that scale.

How to measure for Red Wing

Measure heel-to-toe standing, using the longer foot, with the socks you plan to wear in the boot. Red Wing's own guidance is that a professional Brannock measurement is the right reference point for their boots rather than your sneaker size -- the two are often not the same.

Red Wing fit guidance

IMPORTANT -- fit differs by Red Wing line, and the brand says so itself. Red Wing states that Heritage boots typically run a half size to a full size LARGER, while Red Wing Work boots typically fit true to size. So for Heritage models (Moc Toe, Iron Ranger, Beckman and similar), most wearers take a half to a full size down from the size shown here; for Work boots, take the size as shown. Men's boots are built on a D width as standard with E, EE and wider available; the women's Heritage collection is built on a narrower B width. Red Wing leather also stretches and moulds to the foot with wear, so a snug-but-not-painful fit when new is expected. No Red Wing children's chart was found, and repeated searches have not established whether Red Wing makes children's footwear as a current line at all. Searches return resale listings and unrelated brands rather than a Red Wing children's range. The children's figures shown here are therefore the standard youth scale, not Red Wing's own. If you are buying for a child, check the specific product listing for its size range rather than relying on these numbers.
