Lake Shoe Sizing

Tips for accurate foot measurement

  • Take your foot measurement in a standing position while wearing your cycling socks.

  • Please obtain a 3 digit millimeter measurement.

    • example: 267mm or 26.7cm will provide the correct amount of data.

    • Two digit measurements, like "26cm", does not provide enough data to determine size.

Step-by-step

  • Step 1: Trace your foot onto a sheet of paper. After you trace your foot take a ruler and make a line to mark the furthest point on all four sides as shown below.

  • Step 2: Length measurement (Points 1 to 2 as shown below). Use a millimeter ruler to get the measurement of the longest distance from heel to longest toe (first or second toe).

  • Step 3: Width measurement (Points 3 to 4 as shown below). Use a millimeter ruler to get the measurement of the widest distance of foot from side to side.

  • Step 4: Repeat steps for other foot as your feet may be different sizes. Typically you will want shoes that accommodate your largest foot the most comfortably.

  • Step 5: be sure to add 5mm onto the Length Measurement only before you check against the sizing chart.

Don’t forget to account for the extra 5mm as indicated on the table and cross reference against the shoe size. Also measure width and check what last shape is appropriate for you length and width mesurments so that you get the correct volume of shoe.

Final Step - Stand on your Lake Insole

Before attaching the cleats to check if your lake shoes fit you, first put your foot on the insole of the shoe and put your foot on it. Use the image references below to check and see if your shoe fits well (as well as trying it on of course!). These images are especially useful for shoes which are too big which may initially feel okay on your foot.
