Sock Size Converter
Convert your shoe size into the right sock size, which is labelled differently from shoes and confuses a lot of shoppers. Traditional sock sizes are numeric and roughly ten to eleven for a mens medium, and they are derived from the foot length rather than the shoe, so they do not match your shoe number. Enter your US shoe size and choose men or women, and this tool returns the matching numeric sock size and the common small to extra large alpha size used by most brands today. Socks stretch, so a single alpha size usually covers a range of shoe sizes, but a sock that is too large bunches and one that is too small wears through at the toe. If you are on the boundary between two ranges, size up for cushioned or boot socks. The conversion runs in your browser and updates instantly as you change the shoe size.
How to use Sock Size Converter
- Select men or women sizing.
- Enter your US shoe size.
- Read the numeric sock size.
- Read the matching S to XL alpha size.
Frequently asked questions
How does shoe size become sock size?
It maps your US shoe size to the corresponding numeric sock size range and an S to XL alpha size, since sock sizes are built around shoe size bands.
Why are sock sizes given as ranges?
Each numeric sock size covers a small span of shoe sizes so one pair stretches to fit several sizes, which is why a size can straddle two shoe sizes.
Does it differ by gender?
Yes, select men or women because the same shoe size maps to a different sock size band for each.
