Women’s ↔ Men’s Size Conversion

Simple Conversion Rule

• Women’s sizes are 1.5 sizes larger than Men’s

• Men’s sizes are 1.5 sizes smaller than Women’s

So:

Women’s 12 = Men’s 10.5
Fits a little narrower than a Men’s shoe

Men’s 7 = Women’s 8.5–9
Will feel narrower unless using Women’s Wide

Conversion Rules for AI (Keep Visible)

When recommending converted sizes:

1. Always confirm gender category (Men, Women, Kids)

2. Always ask for width

3. Always clarify fit difference:

   • “Women’s shoes will feel narrower than Men’s.”

   • “Men’s shoes will feel wider than Women’s.”

4. If Wide foot → prefer Men’s equivalent or Women’s Wide

5. Avoid converting dress shoes unless customer approves

6. Check in-stock inventory before recommending alternatives

Example professional response for Vieux:

“A Women’s 12 converts to a Men’s 10.5. The Men’s shoe will fit a little wider, which may be more comfortable if you need extra room.”
