Dubarry size & fit guide
This guide is for Dubarry men's styles sold here in EU sizes. Check the width of the individual model as well as its length.
Size chart
Dubarry's general foot-length guide for EU-sized footwear is shown below. It is a starting point, not a model-specific inside measurement. UK-labelled deck shoes use a separate guide.
Use the length of your longer foot, measured while standing. Do not use the length of an insole. Measure your feet
| EU | Foot length (cm) |

Use the sizes offered on your chosen product. A brand chart may include sizes that are not available in every style.
A chart comparison is a starting point, not a guarantee of fit. Check the style’s width and the sizes available before ordering.
How Dubarry shoes fit
- Dubarry makes both regular and roomier shapes. Drake is described as wide fitting; this does not mean every Dubarry shoe has the same width.
- With lace-ups, adjust the fastening across the instep. With loafers or Chelsea boots, check heel hold and avoid forcing the foot through a tight opening.
- Try boots with the intended socks. Waterproof construction describes protection from weather, not extra room for a thicker sock.
Between sizes?
Compare the two sizes with your usual size in this brand. Your toes should have room while your heel stays secure. If the length feels right but the sides pinch, look for a wider shape rather than automatically choosing a longer shoe.
Brand guidance is a starting point. Product-specific details and the way the shoe holds your foot also matter.
How to measure your feet →When your shoes arrive: a quick fit check
Try them indoors on a clean surface before deciding to keep them.
- Try both shoes. Wear your usual socks or tights and any insoles you intend to use. Adjust the fastenings.
- Check toe room. Your toes should move comfortably, without pressing against the front or being squeezed at the sides.
- Take a few steps. Check for persistent heel slipping, rubbing or pressure across the top of your foot.
- Something feels wrong? Ask us before wearing them outside. A different width or shape may help more than changing size.
How to measure your feet
- Place a sheet of paper on a hard, level floor with one edge against a wall. Wear the socks you plan to wear with the shoes.
- Stand with your heel gently against the wall and your weight on the foot. Have someone mark the end of your longest toe, keeping the pencil upright.
- Measure from the wall edge to the mark in centimetres. Repeat for your other foot and use the longer measurement. Measuring towards the end of the day can be helpful.
Only compare this measurement with a chart labelled foot length. An insole or shoe measurement may include extra space and is not interchangeable. Do not add an allowance unless that brand’s instructions specifically say to.
