The North Face shoe sizes are correct if you refer to Mondo, US or UK sizing. Their 'translation' to EU sizes is different to most other brands and is not correct because in the EU there is no difference between men's and women's sizes but, according to the data in The North Face's shoe size table below, there is!
We therefore recommend:
● If you have owned The North Face footwear before, simply order the same size again.
● Use Mondo, US or UK sizing.
● Ignore The North Face's EU sizing.
If you prefer to use EU sizing we have added an "EU Absolute" column showing the correct conversion from Mondopoint. EU shoe sizes increase in 3.333mm increments - which is why, when presented to a single decimal point, they should always end with .0, .3 or .7 and never with .5.

How to Measure Your Mondo Size
The Mondopoint size of a shoe is the length of the shoe's insole measured in cm. To work out your size, the best way is to look it up on a pair shoes which fit you well or to measure the length of the insole on your best fitting pair of shoes. Remove the insole and measure, using a steal measuring tape, from the extreme tip of the toe to the extreme tip of the heel. The measurement will ALWAYS be exact to the nearest 0.5cm. You will never get 30.2 or 28.8; it will always be 30.0 exactly. This is your mondo shoe or boot size. Checkout this video to have Adam explain it all in plain English. He is using a snowboard boot but the same principle applies to all footwear.
