Sizing Guide: Your Guide to Perfect Fitting Burju Shoes

At Burju, we believe your shoes must lovingly encase your feet and that’s only going to happen when the fit is perfect.

The best way to ensure you get the correct size shoe is to measure your foot.  Sizing varies greatly between different brands so it is best NOT to rely on what size you are in another brand, but rather to get the actual measurement of your foot in centimeters.  

If you do not already know the measurement of your foot please use our "Guide to Measuring Your Foot" below and match your measurement to the size on our size chart for Women or Men. In addition, you can convert Euro sizes to US sizes by using our size charts.

Then look at our Sizing Tips Chart to figure out your best fit by shoe type.

And don’t worry, if you don’t get it right you can take advantage of our fuss-free, no-questions asked, speedy returns process.  

Here are two ways to find the right size and perfect fit for your shoes.

FIRST METHOD:

1. Print the downloadable sizer below at 100% scale.
2. Match the measurements of our scale (in red) to the centimeters of your ruler or measuring tape.
3. Fold or cut at the Heel Line. You should still be able to see the Heel Line.
4. Place the paper with the Heel Line against a wall.
5. Tape the paper down to the floor so it doesn't move.
6. Measure your foot to the size line. The blue numbers are the sizes. If it is between the sizes, select the half size.

*Make sure you measure both feet as left and right foot can vary in size.

The lines on the printable size represent the actual length of our shoes. 

Here are our size selection recommendations:

For OPEN TOE SHOES - select the size which your toes reach closest to without going over.  If you need a tighter, narrower fit consider the sizes your toes are directly on or even slightly over. Or if you need a wider fit, select the next half or full size from where your toes are. 

For CLOSED TOE SHOES, make sure you DO NOT select the size your toes are covering or are right at the edge of. You must be able to see the size line clearly and consider going up in size as needed for width. Remember to measure with socks on if you plan on ordering boots or shoes that you want to wear with socks.

 

SECOND METHOD:

You'll see this too on the video Burju created up top. And all you need to get your proper foot measurement at home are:

• a piece of paper larger than your foot
• a pencil
• tape
• a ruler or measuring tape.

	Tape a paper down to the floor. Get ready to measure your foot barefoot if you do NOT plan on wearing socks. If you plan to wear socks with your shoes please wear them to measure as this will make a difference.
	Stand up and place your foot on the paper. Take a pencil and draw around your foot. Make sure that the angle of the pencil is such that you are making an outline of your actual foot and not bigger or smaller.
	Use a straight edge to make a line at the heel and toe. Then take the measuring tape and measure between the two lines. Do not round up or down dramatically.  Take the measurement in centimeters and write it down on your paper. Repeat this for the second foot as sizes can vary between the left and right foot.

 

 

What if my foot is wide or narrow?

Don’t worry at all! At Burju we have a range of styles that are perfect for either narrow or wider width feet.

Expertly crafted, these styles are unique because they have the ability to adjust to the width of your foot perfectly.

Take a look at the following links to shop these styles:

La Alemana
Jezabel
Tayla
Vaneno

If the style you hoped for is not on this list you can also try ordering a half size smaller than your regular size (for narrow feet) or a half size larger than your regular size (for wider feet).

PLUS... We can also custom order the shoes in other colors or heels to meet your specific needs. If the style you like is not on the options offered, you can special custom order them.

What heel height should I order?

At Burju, we’re all about comfort and while all our shoes, including the highest heels, are supremely comfortable you should order the heel height that will work best for you.

For instance, if you’re going to spend 6 out of 8 hours at work standing, you may want to go for a slightly lower heel than what you’d use for Salsa-ing the night away!

Burju heels are measured from the outside or tallest part of the heel.
