Winter boots should fit differently than your everyday sneakers — here's what to know before you order.

General fit rules

• Leave room for thick socks. If you'll be wearing heavy wool or thermal socks, consider sizing up half a size from your regular shoe size.
• You should be able to wiggle your toes freely. A too-tight fit restricts circulation, which actually makes your feet colder, not warmer.
• Heel should feel locked in, not loose. Some heel slip is normal when breaking in a boot, but excessive slip can cause blisters over a full day of wear.

Size chart

How to measure your foot at home

1. Place a piece of paper on a hard floor against a wall
2. Stand on it with your heel against the wall
3. Mark the tip of your longest toe
4. Measure the distance in cm or inches and match it to the chart above

Slip-on vs. laced fit differences

If you're choosing between a laced boot and a slip-on style, keep in mind slip-on boots rely more on structured panels and heel counters (rather than laces) to secure fit — so pay close attention to the specific fit notes on each product page, since slip-on sizing can run slightly differently than laced styles.
