* Please read sizing information before purchase

SCARPA Sizing

General Notes:

  • All SCARPA non-plastic footwear uses European sizing
  • 1 Euro whole size = 6.6 mm = 0.26 inches
  • 1 US whole size = 8.4 mm = 0.33 inches
  • The 30 Euro sizes on our size chart cover the same size range as 24 US sizes.
  • More Euro sizes provide a better, more precise fit for your intended use.
Rock Shoes:
Downsize up to 2 full sizes from street shoe size * downsizing depends on model, intended use, and personal preference. Most people will downsize ½ to 1 full size from street shoe size for their SCARPA rock shoes.

Mountaineering:
Upsize (1/2+ sizes) depending on desired fit * SCARPA plastic mountaineering boots are based on the UK sizing scale.

Ski Boots:
All SCARPA ski boots (except the Alien 3.0) are measured in Mondo sizing * Our sizes break on the ½ size, meaning each ½ size is the same shell size as the whole size above it. For example, a 26.5 and 27 use the same shell. Our SCARPA/Intuition liners are lasted for each 1/2 size, and can be further customized after purchase for a more precise fit. Some skiers may want to downsize up to 1 full Mondo size from that listed on our conversion chart, depending upon personal preference.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

From your measured size, you'll want to consider downsizing .5 - 2 full sizes. The flatter the shoe, the closer to your measured size; the more downturned/aggressive the shoe, the more you'll want to downsize.

The best fit is comparative between sizes and only you will be able to judge that, though an experience climber could offer good insights to your fit.

If it feels painful, it may break in... or it may not.

Pain sucks as a rule of thumb though and makes climbing miserable.

Only you can judge what's 'acceptable' discomfort.

Good fitting rock shoes shouldn't necessarily be 'comfortable' by walking/running shoe standards.

Look for looseness/bagginess in the toes and heel. Bagginess can mean 'slop' when climbing with feet perspiring, etc.

Toes should completely fill the toebox.

Heel should feel solid; like they won't pull off if heel hooking.

Any foot movement in new shoes will mean sloppy fit when broken in.
