How do you know what size socks to buy?
Sock sizing is an odd thing. To be frank, sock sizes can get confusing; numbers, letters, measurements...but what does it all mean? The socks are listed with the label’s sizing while purchasing them. When a label says “size 10-13”, it doesn’t mean shoe size. This range is typically intended to fit US men’s shoe sizes 6-12 or something close to that. And we all know that it isn’t always true by our experience. That tends to trip people up about sock sizing.

You may be ask how I determine my sock size. But I’d like to ask whether you know your shoe sizes. If yes, that’s the easiest way to figure out your sock size. Here’s how those sock sizes convert to shoe sizes:

Tip: Above information is just for your reference. Be sure to check the size charts for the specific sock you’re interested in because sizing differs between brands. Each brand also has its own corresponding size chart!
