Size guide
Sealskinz waterproof socks & overshoes – unisex sizing
| Size | UK shoe size | EU shoe size | US men's shoe size |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | 3–5 | 36–38 | 3.5–6 |
| M | 6–8 | 39–42 | 7–9 |
| L | 9–11 | 43–46 | 10–12 |
| XL | 12–14 | 47–49 | 13–15 |
How to choose: pick the size that matches your normal shoe size, so a UK 7 is a Medium.
Socks: waterproof socks are thicker than normal socks, so if you're at the top of a size (for example UK 8 to 8½), go up a size.
Overshoes: use the same sizes, matched to the cycling shoes you'll wear them over. They're a close fit, so if you're between sizes, go up a size. Where an overshoe comes in S/M, that size covers UK 3–8 (EU 36–42).
