Fit notes
Between two sizes? Go with the bigger size. Your toes should never be cramped.
One foot bigger? Use the bigger foot. Everyone's a little uneven.
Extra wide feet? Go one size up. Our shoes were designed with a variety of foot-shapes in mind. The soft leather moulds and settles into a glove fit.
Higher instep? Stay with your usual size. The Cat & Ava lace up or down, so you can adjust based on the height of your instep.
Not sure, or between sizes? Book a consultation and we'll help you get it right.
How to measure
Measure your foot (1 minute, more accurate than guessing):
1. Put a sheet of paper flat against a wall.
2. Stand on it, heel against the wall.
3. Mark the tip of your longest toe.
4. Measure from the wall edge to the mark.
5. Do both feet. Use the bigger number.
6. Measure at the end of the day, in the socks you'd dance in.
