Stiefeld Size Guide: Find Your Perfect Fit for Boots, Sneakers, Mules, and Sandals
At Stiefeld, we want to make sure you get the perfect fit for your boots, sneakers, mules, and sandals. Whether you’re ordering cowhide boots or artisan sandals, we’ve got all the details you need to find your ideal size. Please refer to our size charts and tips for the best fitting experience.
Boots: Find the Right Fit
Our boots come in half and whole sizes to ensure a perfect fit. To determine your correct size, please measure both of your feet.
- Women’s Sizes: US 4 (21 cm) to US 10 (27 cm)
- Men’s Sizes: US 7 (24 cm) to US 13 (30 cm)
Toe Shapes and Sizing Recommendations:
- Square, round, and snip toe boots: These styles run true to size. If you’re between sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size.
Example: If your left foot is 24.3 cm and your right foot is 24.5 cm, your size will be 24.5 cm (US 7.5 for women, US 6.5 for men).
- Wide square toe boots: These run half a size bigger, so if you have one foot slightly smaller, we suggest ordering the smaller size.
Example: If your left foot is 24.3 cm and your right foot is 24.5 cm, your square toe size would be 24 cm (US 7 for women, US 6 for men).
- EE Wide Boots: These are designed for wide feet, so there’s no need to size up unless otherwise indicated.
Sneakers: Comfortable and True to Size
Our Julia Sneakers come in half and whole sizes.
- Sizes available: US 6 (23 cm) to US 11 (28 cm).
True to Size for Most Feet:
The Julia Sneakers are true to size. If you have wide feet, we recommend sizing up for a more comfortable fit.
Example: If your left foot is 24.3 cm and your right foot is 24.5 cm, your sneaker size will be 24.5 cm (US 7.5).
- Width: These sneakers have a regular width, which is suitable for most feet.
Shoes: Relaxed Fit for Easy Comfort
Shoes (mules, loafers, and flats) are available in whole sizes because they’re meant to have a relaxed fit.
- Sizes available: US 5 (22 cm) to US 12 (29 cm).
- If you wear a half size, we recommend ordering the next size up. Whole sizes remain true to size.
Example: If your left foot is 24.3 cm and your right foot is 24.5 cm, your Abby size will be 25 cm (US 8). This also applies to the Georgette and Adeline Mules.
- Width: The mules are designed for regular width, ideal for standard feet.
Sandals: Relaxed Fit with Custom Sizing Tips
Our sandals come in whole sizes only for a relaxed, comfortable fit.
- Sizes available: US 5 (22 cm) to US 12 (29 cm).
Ella, Ona, and Tara Sandals:
- These sandals are designed with a narrow width. If you have wide feet, we recommend sizing up.
Agnes and Luciana Sandals:
- These sandals have a regular width and fit true to size for standard feet. For half sizes, we recommend sizing up.
Example: If your left foot is 24.3 cm and your right foot is 24.5 cm, your Agnes sandal size would be 25 cm (US 8).
Sizing Tips for Sandals:
- For half sizes, we recommend sizing up to the next full size.
Example: If your left foot is 24.3 cm and your right foot is 24.5 cm, your sandal size will be 25 cm (US 8).
- For whole sizes, if you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up to the next size.
Example: If your left foot is 25.0 cm and your right foot is 25.3 cm, your sandal size will be 26 cm (US 9).

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I care for them?
Gently brush in the direction of the hair with a soft cloth. Keep them dry and store away from direct sunlight.

Every pair is handcrafted in León, Mexico, the capital of fine leather shoemaking.
