Shoe Size Guide for Nigerians: How to Choose the Right Fit When Buying Online
One of the biggest fears Nigerians have when buying shoes online is simple:
“What if it doesn’t fit?”
This fear is valid. Many people have ordered shoes online only to receive something too tight, too loose, or uncomfortable after just a few hours of wear.
The good news is this:
Buying the right shoe size online is easy when you know what to check.
This guide shows Nigerians how to choose the right shoe size when shopping online — confidently and correctly.
Why Shoe Size Issues Are Common in Nigeria
Most size problems happen because of:
- Different sizing standards (UK, EU, US)
- Guessing instead of measuring
- Ignoring foot width
- Buying without asking questions
- Assuming all shoes fit the same way
Online shopping fails when buyers rush.

How Nigerians Can Choose the Right Shoe Size Online
1. Know your correct shoe size
Do not rely on guesswork or memory.
If you are unsure:
- Check a pair of shoes you already wear comfortably
- Look at the size label inside the shoe
- Note whether it is UK, EU, or US sizing
Always confirm the sizing system used by the seller.
2. Measure your foot at home
This takes less than 2 minutes and prevents mistakes.
How to measure:
- Stand on a sheet of paper
- Trace your foot outline
- Measure from heel to longest toe (in centimeters)
- Measure both feet and use the larger measurement
Foot length matters more than shoe number.
3. Understand that fit is not just about length
Two people with the same shoe size can have very different experiences.
Check if the shoe is:
- Narrow or wide
- Soft or stiff
- Pointed or rounded at the toe
If this information is not stated, ask before ordering.
4. Consider how and where you’ll wear the shoe
Ask yourself:
- Will I wear it all day or for short occasions?
- Will I wear socks with it?
- Is it for office, church, events, or daily use?
Comfort needs differ by purpose.
5. Use customer support before ordering
A serious online store will help you choose correctly.
Before buying:
- Ask questions on WhatsApp
- Confirm size recommendations
- Clarify exchange options if available
This step alone prevents most mistakes.
