K-Fashion Sizing : Your Guide to Korean Size Charts

Tips for Free Size Purchases: 

When purchasing items in free sizes, it's essential to consider that Korean women's clothing tends to be designed in smaller sizes compared to other countries. While most stores offer their specifications and measurement guidelines, a brief size conversion is often sufficient. However, it's crucial to pay special attention to product measurements when labeled as a free size. Ironically, many individuals find free sizes uncomfortable because they are crafted to fit sizes ranging from 44 to a slender 66, equivalent to size 2–6 in the US and size 4–12 in the UK. 

Below, you will see size charts in the following order:

1. Women’s clothing sizes

2. Men’s clothing sizes

3. Women’s shoe sizes

4. Men’s shoes size

5. Baby & Kids sizes

Pants do not adhere to a universal size chart; instead, stores may utilize either the Korean size or the International size indicated in the chart above (e.g., size 55 vs. S). It's crucial to examine product measurements, particularly the waist width (or girth), as it varies depending on whether the pants are high-waisted, mid-waisted, or low-rise 

Note: For European sizes refer to the following. French (FRA) sizes are used across Belgium, Spain and Portugal. German (GER) sizes are used in Austria, Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, and Sweden.

Here's a handy tip! To convert men's shoe size to women's, simply add 1.5 to the women's shoe size, and vice versa. For instance, if you typically wear a women's US size 8.5, you should search for men's size 7.
