Does Balenciaga use French sizing?

1 Answer
Does Balenciaga use French sizing?
Yes, Balenciaga uses French shoe sizing. Most French fashion houses use European sizing methods, which is also true for Balenciaga shoes—it follows the EU method. If you know your North American shoe size, a good rule of thumb is to add 31 to it and you’ll have your EU shoe size. If you’re wondering about Balenciaga clothing, most items follow a traditional S, M, L, etc. format. You’ll find a large collection of Balenciaga shoes and other products from many of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
