Most entries in this gallery record one size system: EU. A smaller number record both EU and US. This page explains what that means and gives the one complete EU-to-US mapping that appears in the catalogue.
What the size data is
Each entry lists the sizes that were recorded for that particular model when it was catalogued. It is a record of what exists in that size run — not a stock list, and not a claim about what is available today.
The one complete mapping in this catalogue
On the entry for Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG SP ‘Velvet Brown’, both systems are recorded across 19 sizes. That gives us a full observed mapping:
| EU | US |
|---|---|
| 36 | 4 |
| 36.5 | 4.5 |
| 37.5 | 5 |
| 38 | 5.5 |
| 38.5 | 6 |
| 39 | 6.5 |
| 40 | 7 |
| 40.5 | 7.5 |
| 41 | 8 |
| 42 | 8.5 |
| 42.5 | 9 |
| 43 | 9.5 |
| 44 | 10 |
| 44.5 | 10.5 |
| 45 | 11 |
| 45.5 | 11.5 |
| 46 | 12 |
| 47.5 | 13 |
| 48.5 | 14 |
How to use it
Read it as a starting point, not a rule. The mapping above is what one model’s size run looks like. Different models use different lasts — the shape the shoe is built on — so the same EU number can feel different from one silhouette to another. A chunky low-top and a slim runner marked EU 42 are not the same amount of room.
Two practical notes:
- Half sizes are not evenly spaced. Note that the table jumps from EU 41 straight to 42, and from 37.5 to 38 — the recorded runs skip some half sizes entirely.
- When an entry lists EU only, that is because US was not recorded for it. It is not an omission to be guessed at.
