Taimen Ongi Michelin Wading Boots
Size Charts
Taimen shoe sizes are based on US shoe sizes.
To properly choose the size of the shoe for your foot, you need to consider the neoprene sock. In practice, this means ordering a shoe one size larger than your everyday shoe size.
To do this, select the Taimen shoe size (Taimen Size based on US) and find the corresponding size in the table.
For example: If you normally wear size 42 (EU) shoes, you should choose size 10.
| Size (based on US sizes) | Shoe number | Foot length in cm | Insert length in cm (total length inside of boot) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | 39 1/2 | 25 | 27 |
| 9 | 41 | 26 | 28 |
| 10 | 42 | 27 | 29 |
| 11 | 43 1/2 | 28 | 30 |
| 12 | 45 | 29 | 31 |
| 13 | 46 | 30 | 32 |
If you cannot find the correct shoe size, you can use a shoe insert that reduces the size by about half a size.
