Poll & Survey
Many of our visitors ask the same question like the one below. Feel free to vote and leave a comment.
Clarks know that correctly fitting shoes is important no matter what your age. Many people may not fit into a standard 'whole' size which is why Clarks offer whole and half sizes. Wear your favourite footwear in the comfort and style that you would expect from Clarks by checking the men's, women's and kids size guides to find your perfect fit.
How to Measure Your Foot
Place your foot on a flat surface with your heel against a straight edge. Place a ruler beside your foot touching the straight edge your heel is also touching, then take the length in millimetres from the tip of your longest toe to your heel. Please be aware that your longest toe may not always be your big toe.
Perfect Width Fitting
Your width fitting is just as important as your shoe size. Clarks offer a range of width fittings for men and women.
Fitting Advice from Clarks Shoe Fitting & Development Team
- Question: Why does the same shoe size fit differently in different styles?
Answer: Everybody's feet are individual, but our shoes are developed to fit as consistently as possible across a range of different styles. The styling, construction or materials can affect the fit.
For example, a shoe made from patent leather may feel tighter than the same style made from soft, suede leather. This could be due to the consistency of the material and how it moves with your foot. However, leather is a natural material and may stretch over time to adapt the shape of your foot.
When we measure feet in our shops, we measure the length of the foot as well as the circumference to indicate which shoe size the customer is.
We can't make a range of shoes to accommodate each individual variation of measurements, which is why we provide many styles in half sizes and different width fittings.
- Question: How do I know which width fitting is best for me?
Answer: Our standard fit should fit most people - this is a D fit in our women's shoes and a G fit in our men's shoes. However, if your big toe joint/small toes begin to feel pinched or ache, then you may need to try a wider fit.
- Question: I have slim feet. Which styles would suit me?
Answer: People with slim feet and a low instep/arch may benefit from the use of an insock or inner sole to help reduce the excess volume inside the shoe. This can be particularly beneficial for ladies wishing to wear shoes with no effective fastening such as a court shoe.
- Question: I have a high instep. Which styles would suit me best?
Answer: Styles which are low cut on the front, and do not cover your instep are a good place to start, like loafers.
If you prefer a style with more foot coverage, then try a style with some adjustability so you can loosen the lace/buckle. Pull on boots and mule type styles are likely to give issues with foot entry.
- Question: I have a high arch - which styles will suit me best?
Answer: Try to select a style with a reasonably high cut and avoid styles with low waists such as low-slung ballerina styles and some court shoes as these will tend to gape.
- Question: I have low ankle bones and the toplines rub. what can i do?
Answer: Try adding a half insock, this will help to raise the foot slightly in the back of the shoe and raise it off the topline.
- Question: I love high heels, but they make the arches of my foot ache. What can I do?
Wedges or platform shoes can offer the height of a heel but with less of an ache in the arch of the foot. The substance of the sole in the forepart means that the arch of the foot is cranked at much less of an angle and thus aches less.
- Question: I have wider calves, which size boot/leg do I select?
Answer: Women with fuller calves should generally select wide leg boots with an 'E' fitting, as these have a wide leg.
Each whole size has a circumference that is approx. 10mm wider. On an 'E' fitting of the same size, it will be 50mm wider at the top of the leg, then 40mm wider at the lower leg blending in at the ankle.

C. & J. Clark International Ltd, trading as Clarks, is a British international shoe manufacturer and retailer. It was founded in 1825 by Cyrus Clark in the village of Street, Somerset, England, where the company's headquarters remain.
The company has 1,400 branded stores and franchises around the world and also sells through third-party distribution. Clarks also operated concessions in Mothercare stores.
The company is commonly known for its Desert Boot, an ankle height boot with crepe rubber sole, usually made out of calf suede leather traditionally supplied by Charles F Stead & Co tannery in Leeds. Officially launched in 1950, the Desert Boot was designed by Nathan Clark (great-grandson of James Clark) based on an unlined suede boot profile produced in the bazaars of Cairo and worn by British officers in the Second World War.
For the year ending January 2013, the company made a profit of £150 million on sales of £1,433m making it the 31st largest private company in the United Kingdom. More than half of its £1.4bn annualized sales to January were generated abroad. Since 2010, the company has begun to trade in India, where it now has 25 stand-alone stores, and relaunched marketing in China, where it has opened 400 outlets in partnership with local footwear retailers.
Clarks was 84% owned by the Clark family, with the remaining 16% held by employees and related institutions. In November 2020, after a company voluntary arrangement, Clarks was rescued through a £100 million investment by the Hong Kong-based private equity firm LionRock Capital, in which the Clarks family lost overall control of the company. In January 2021, Viva China Holdings agreed to acquire 51% of LionRock Capital, so has a substantial stake in the Clarks brand.
