Measurement Reference

How the foot is measured

Foot measurement diagram
Foot Length (cm) Longest point — from the tip of the big toe to the back of the heel. This is the measurement used in the size chart.
Sole Width (cm) Widest point of the forefoot. Our last is built for a standard D-width fit.

How to find your size

Measure your foot at home

1

Place foot on paper

Stand barefoot on a flat sheet of paper. Keep your weight evenly distributed — the foot spreads slightly under load, which gives a more accurate measurement.

2

Mark both ends

With a pencil, mark the furthest point of your longest toe and the rearmost point of your heel. Keep the pencil vertical against the foot for accuracy.

3

Measure in centimeters

Measure the straight distance between the two marks. Use a ruler, not a tape measure, to avoid any curve in the measurement.

4

Find your size

Match your measurement to the Foot Length column in the chart above. The corresponding US size is your Lignarolo size.

+

Between two sizes? Always choose the larger size. Our loafers are built on a fitted last — a half-size too large will break in comfortably, while a half-size too small will not.

'D' fitting

Size D is the standard width for men, so if your foot is wide, you may need to go up a size. It fits most men. In the UK it is known as size F; In other parts of the world, it is known as M (medium) or R (regular).

Fit considerations

Wider feet or higher instep

If your foot tends to feel tight in standard shoes, consider selecting a slightly larger size. For designs without half sizes, moving up one full size may provide a more comfortable fit. Structured styles may feel firmer across the instep.

Narrow or slim feet

For a closer fit, you may opt for a smaller size. If your preferred size is not available in halves, choosing one size down can help achieve a better hold. You can also enhance fit with an insole or heel support.
