What shoe sizes are available on this site?

We list in UK and EU sizes depending on the brand.

How do UK sizes work?

Children's sizes start with the Junior range (1 to 13.5) then start again at 1 in the Senior range. The UK sizes for kids we display are shown as either Jnr (Junior) or Snr (Senior). Footwear for adults is always in the senior range and does not have (or need) the Snr suffix.

How do EU sizes work?

Generally starting at EU 17 (for infants) with a straight run to about 47 in the men's range. Some styles also have half sizes (e.g. denoted 40.5)

What are the widths for kids shoes?

Width fittings for kids, where offered, are in the range: D, E, F, G, H, where D is narrowest, F is a standard fit and H is widest. When a width is not specified on a style the fit is generally an 'F', however styles do vary, if you are unsure please contact us for advice.

What are the widths for adults shoes?

The women's widths scale is different to the kids. 'D' is standard, 'E' is wider and 'EE' is wider still. The men's widths range from 'F' (narrow), 'G' (standard) to 'H' (wide).

Australia import tax - do I need to pay?

No (for orders under AU$1000). Since we are not registered for Australian GST tax (and at present do not need to register) we do not advance-charge GST on our exports to Australia. Also, since your order is most likely to be under AU$1000 you should not be chaged tax by Australian Customs. Our CN22 declares the value of the order as part of the shipping documentation. But, in the unlikely event that you are charged import tax, it will be your responsibility to pay this and re-claim this back from the Australian Customs authority.

However, if you buy any of our goods through our eBay store, to be shipped to Australia, you will be charged 10% extra to cover the GST. This is due to recent (2018) changes in Australian law. We have no control over the eBay tax surcharge which, we understand, they are bound by law to add.
