Shoe Size NOTES of Interest

International ShoeSize Chart Notes
>The Mondopoint system is the same as measuring the foot (not the shoe) in Millimeters (or Millimetres, mm.). However, some companies treat Mondopoint as Centimeters (Centimetres, cm.). So a shoe may be labeled either 240 (mm) or 24 (cm) if it is designed for a foot that is 240 millimeters long (including some wiggle room for socks). You may see mondopoint sizes with two numbers separated by a slash, e.g. 240/95. The second number is the width of the foot in millimeters.
>American Women's shoe sizes are the same as American Men's shoe sizes plus 1½.
>Canadian shoe sizes are equivalent (identical) to American shoe sizes for both Adult and >Children's, Men and Women.
>Mexican shoe sizes plus 1½ are the same as American Men's shoe sizes.
>British shoe sizes plus 1 are the same as American Men's shoe sizes. However, I see many tables using a formula of British size plus 1½. Check with the manufacturer.
I saw one table on the web indicating British womens running shoe sizes were 1.5 plus mens size. I think this is incorrect and mistakenly applied the United States sizing rule to the U.K.
>Japanese shoes sizes are American Men's shoes sizes plus 18. (Some companies say add 19.)
>Europe uses a system that came from the French called Paris Points (aka Parisien Prick). One >Paris Point equals two-thirds of a centimeter. The system starts at zero centimeters and increases. There are no half sizes. American size 0 is the same as 15 Paris Points.
1 Centimeter (Centimetre) is 10 Millimeters (Millimetres).
1 Inch is 2.54 Centimeters (Centimetres).
Length in Inches = 71/3 + (US Men's shoe size)*1/3
Paris Points = 311/3 + (UK shoe size)*4/3.
>A Chinese 7 is a UK 4. That's all I know at the moment about sizes of shoes in China.
>Australia and New Zealand use the same shoe sizes as the United Kingdom for boys, men and girls. However, I have seen women's shoe charts where Australia is 1 or 2 sizes bigger than U.K... I added an entry with one size bigger.
>Korea measures shoe sizes in millimeters (mm.).
>I am told Turkey uses European shoe sizes.
>There are two scales used in the U.S. The standard (or "FIA") scale and the common scales. The "common" scale is more widely used. The scales are about ½ size different.
Although different kinds of shoes prefer different measurement systems, I believe the charts work for all kinds of shoes. (With the caveat of the variations mentioned above.) I have been looking into army, military, ski, hiking, climbing boots, ladies pumps, high-heeled, spike and dress shoes, as well as sneakers, designer shoes, gentlemen's shoes, causal, penny loafers, sandals, and other styles. I have not been researching children's shoes in much detail. The sizes above are also good for soccer, golf, running and other sports shoes. I have not tried bowling shoes or blue suede sneakers. I intend to get more detail on Nike, Reebok, and Adidas due to the strong interest in running shoes for people coming to this page.
If you have information or can point me at information about additional measurement systems of systems used by different countries I would be grateful. (I am interested in Latin America and Eastern Europe.)
>Russian and Ukraine shoe sizes taken from Global7Network.com NOTE I am told these values are incorrect. Russia, Ukraine and other countries of the former USSR use European shoe sizes. There is no difference for men, women, girls and boys. In the 1980s a system using shoe sizes measured in centimeters was introduced. The change was not widely accepted. You can occasionally find shoes measured in centimeters, but most are marked with European system.

h1n1 influenza Swine Flu PREPARE Immune System

Ultimate Aloe Vera>®---is an ANTI-VIRAL. The flu is a virus. Make a decision for your health.

This is some great information I found in a recent discussion.

Aloe Vera is an Immune System Boost
and encourages the body to heal itself naturally

Pure and potent aloe vera supplements are powerhouses of minerals, vitamins, amino acids, enzymes and micronutrients. They are natural foods and virtually a one-stop-shop to help replace dietary inadequacies.

With so many nutrients being available at once from the same product...

  • your system is able to draw from the aloe vera the exact nutrients it needs
  • the nutrients work together which gives more powerful results...aloe vera is well known for its synergistic properties
  • you save money by not having to spend a fortune on a multitude of supplements
Internal use of quality aloe vera over a month will give you in excess of 100 nutrients for the same cost as maybe one or two bottles of a single nutrient. Plus, you have the added advantage of anti viral, fungal and bacterial properties meaning less colds, flu, infections and fungal problems like athletes foot.

Feel and see the health benefits when you give your immune system a boost by feeding it daily with nourishing nutrients found only in quality aloe vera supplements.

Boost Immune System Health Daily with
Potent Aloe Vera

The Simple Solution to Regain and Retain Good Health

A healthy immune system allows the body to heal itself naturally.

However, a weak immune system means your body is unable to efficiently heal itself. Colds linger, skin problems and allergies won't go away and digestive problems such as reflux and inflammatory bowel are often on going.

Lethargy, poor sleeping and lack of mental clarity can all be attributed to a weakened immune system trying to cope.

Warning signals such as stiff joints, fatigue, headaches, allergies, ulcers and regularly losing things tell us our body is not coping. Often we experience many years of symptoms before diseases of the immune system, known as autoimmune diseases, take hold.

The unhealthy immune system seems to go awry by turning on itself and attacking various tissues of the body rather than attacking outside bacteria and toxins.

Resveratrol 60 MInutes CBS May 24, 2009 WHY WAIT?

We do not have to wait for a pill at the pharmacy. We have had Resveratrol available for some time. Resveratrol Isotonix can be seen here.

Eighteen years ago, 60 Minutes first examined the so-called French paradox, which suggested that the French - despite a high fat diet and high consumption of wine - had a remarkably low incidence of heart disease compared with Americans. Most researchers agreed that there was something in the wine that offered protection, and a few years later, even the highly cautious federal dietary guidelines say that moderate consumption of red wine can be beneficial. ......

Initial test results on cancer patients are expected this September. Last summer, Dr. Sinclair and Dr. Westphal's little start-up company was bought by the pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline for almost three quarters of a billion dollars.

The researchers were bought out by a large pharmaceutical firm. That could be the end of that research. It would take away the need for so many other drugs for illness. RESVERATROL is available NOW in non-prescription form. $44.95
