Hello, many people ask me how to determine the size on Aliexpress clothes, shoes for men, women, children in Chinese Aliexpress in Russian... I have been ordering in this online store for a long time and I have not seen uniform size standards from any seller. Since I switched to shopping on the Internet for a long time, I got tired of seeing these snickering faces of businessmen - the owners of local stores, who, like with Aliexpress, increase prices for similar goods.
The biggest problem buying or ordering on Ali is the inability to try on a thing. In this article, I have given the main dimensional grids and Chinese sizes, European, American (USA) for different countries.
Many of my acquaintances afraid order things and shoes from Aliexpress, because be afraid to be wrong in size. BUT this is a big stupidity, every seller in the product description has dimensional grids either in millimeters or in centimeters, and you just have to measure yourself with an ordinary gypsum meter or ruler and compare the results with the seller's size chart on Aliexpress. How to correctly measure yourself about this further ...
ATTENTION: the dimensional grids and tables presented below are suitable for Chinese online stores Joom (Jum) and Pandao (Pandao).

BUT there is mine Golden Rule : use the measurement tables and dimensional grids given by the seller in the description of each product and read the comments and reviews of your fellow citizens under the products (easily identified by the language of writing and the flag of the country). The more stars and orders the seller has, the better (determined in the picture below), and if there are comments and reviews below under the product of real buyers along with a photo, then you can safely order! If in doubt, then proven way is to contact the seller directly and ask the information you are interested in. For communication, I used the Google translator, in which the Russian language translates well into international - English (USA), and did not make big problems in understanding (advice: build simple sentences for communication).
Chinese sellers, as well as all over the world, usually indicate dimensions in the form of letters, see below in the figure:

Designation: Translation:
Before looking at the rest of the clothing and footwear measurement tables, you should familiarize yourself with the small intricacies of the designation, for example, the Roman numeral X is added to large sizes on an increasing basis and, accordingly, the more there are in front of them, your size will increase in arithmetic progression. XXL is larger than XL, and XXXL is larger than XXL, and so on. It happens so that not to block X, they are simply replaced with 5XL, 6XL, 7XL, I noticed this among sellers selling large sizes of dresses, shirts, shirts, trousers, that is, they specialize in stores for curvy and full forms. And usually special words are indicated in the description: fat women big size, large-size extra large, plus size womens, ladies fashion large sizes, their meaning is easy to understand, for example, big size is translated as very large size. It should be noted that the Chinese brothers, the nation is usually thin and short, therefore on the website ru. aliexpress.com, you will often come across a small size.
English words and designations that can be useful when communicating with the seller: shoulder (shoulder width), sleeve (arm length is the distance from shoulder to wrist), chest / bust (chest volume), waist (waist), hips (hips) , neck (neck girth for jackets with a collar and blouses).
It may be such a situation that the designations are presented in the great Chinese language, but this will also not be a problem. Use the picture below.
But before looking at the comparison tables, first measure yourself, since the measurement method for men and women is different, look at the pictures below.
After you have measured yourself, use the women's clothing size matching table.
(Women shirt, blouses, sweaters, coats, down jacket, jacket, suit).
To use this plate, first measure your leg (foot). At the bottom of the site, you will find how to correctly and correctly do this (look for the image from the feet).

Children are the flowers of life and we always want them to look nice and tidy, but we don’t want to spend a lot of money on the purchase of expensive children's clothing or shoes.

Remember, it's worth ordering baby clothes or shoes one size, or even two more, because it is worth considering the duration of delivery from the Chinese store and the fact that children grow quickly - take things for growth! And don't forget about winter shoes since thickness fur or a woolen sock eats up about a centimeter.
Measurement of the foot before buying shoes or stockings, tights or socks is done as follows, you get on clear sheet paper and make notes as shown in the figure, and then compare with the tables presented above on the site.

When choosing shirts, blouses, jackets and coats, pay attention to the length of the sleeves, since it is customary for the Chinese to wear clothes with short sleeves. Plus, the miniature Asians' physique adds to the difference in centimeters on the sleeves.
Online shopping is gaining in popularity every day. This is especially true of foreign online stores, where prices are not so high, even taking into account delivery, and the quality of goods is often much higher than domestic counterparts. However, many users are still afraid to purchase shoes in this way. This is due to the difference in the adopted measurement systems in different countries, it is quite easy to make a mistake with the size. Not every person knows, for example, how to translate a Chinese shoe size into Russian, but this manufacturing country is in the lead.
In Russia, a metric measurement system has been adopted that complies with ISO 3355-77 (international standard). This is very convenient, since you can determine your personal size by simple steps, without leaving your home and without making adjustments to the shape of the shoe last.
The French (European) system is called the shtihmass system, since a special unit is taken as the basis of measurement - shtih, equal to 2/3 of a centimeter, which is approximately 6.7 mm. To determine the size of shoes according to the French system, you need to measure the length of the insole (not the feet) in the shtich. Chinese shoe sizes are determined in the same way as European ones.
No less interesting is the English system, where measurements are made in inches (1 inch is equal to 2.54 cm). In this system, the size of zero is taken to be the size of a newborn's foot, which is approximately 4 inches. For each next number, 1/3 inch is added until the thirteenth dimension is typed (0, 1/3, 2/3, 1, 1 and 1/3 ... 13). This is where children's sizes end and adults begin, again from 1 to 13.
The US sizing system is quite similar to the English sizing system, with it being moved a little more towards zero - 2.1 mm (approximately 1/12 inch).
On the one hand, Chinese ones are very similar to European ones, but on the other hand, for some reason they always turn out to be undersized, and even if you correctly determined the number of your shoes from the table, no one can guarantee that you will get what you want.
So, what you need to do to find out the size (metric) of your foot:
Repeat the above manipulations at least 3 times and take as correct the result that was repeated at least 2 times. If you find it difficult to circle your foot without squatting, you can use the "help a friend" option.
Another parameter for correct selection shoe is the fullness of the foot (width). This criterion is not often specified by manufacturers, since traditional shoes for everyday wear are quite soft and stretch over time (trampled down). This parameter is especially important when buying stiff shoes, such as ski boots or skates.
Chinese shoe sizes very rarely have information about completeness, but practice shows that the vast majority of models made in the Middle Kingdom are designed for a rather narrow foot. If you are the owner of a fairly full foot, buy shoes with laces or Velcro, this will make it possible to adjust the width of the model.
V Russian Federation to indicate the width (completeness) of both men's and women's shoes, the numbering is adopted from 1 to 12 (interval 4 mm), the European gradation assumes values from 1 to 8 with an interval of 5 mm, and the USA and Great Britain prefer letter designations from A to F through every 5 mm.
To correctly determine the fullness of your foot, you will have to turn to measurements again: take and measure in millimeters the circumference of the foot in its widest part (where the little toe begins to grow or the thumb "bone" protrudes). Next, you need the following formula:
P = 0.25 * About - 0.15 * L - A, where P is the required completeness; About - the girth of your foot in mm; Dl is the length of the foot in mm; A is a certain constant coefficient (for women - 16, for men - 17).
The result obtained must be rounded to a whole number, observing the rules of mathematics: up to 5 mm - downward, more than 5 mm - upward.
To correctly determine the metric size of your foot, you need to know some subtleties:
As you know, a person is asymmetrical, this can be easily confirmed by looking at your nails. On one hand, usually the left, nail plates larger than the other. The same happens with all paired organs - ears, eyes, palms and, of course, feet, therefore measurements should be taken on both legs, the larger result will be correct.
If everything is more or less clear with adult sizes, then you will have to tinker with children's shoes, especially when the sizes are Chinese. You can find an incredible amount of children's shoes on the shelves of retail outlets, and even more so in online stores.
It is very difficult for a child, especially a small child, to describe his feelings after trying on - whether his shoes are shaking him or not, and all the more difficult to convince the baby to "move the leg forward" - he simply does not understand what his mother wants from him. So here, more than ever, a table of sizes of Chinese shoes will come in handy - it is best, of course, to print this and carry it with you - it will suddenly come in handy.
Foot length | Russia (size) | Europe (size) | China (size) |
It is important to remember that you should not buy shoes for a child "for growth" - firstly, this will certainly affect the formation of the foot and may end with flat feet, and secondly, the baby will simply be uncomfortable to walk, and no one needs injuries and falls. It is enough to have a stock of a maximum of one size, so to speak "on a warm toe."
It is not so easy for the fair sex with a not too graceful leg to choose shoes. And the Chinese sizes of women's shoes are rarely large at all. This is probably due to the fact that in the Celestial Empire the large size of a lady's feet is a sign of bad taste, therefore, girls from an early age are bandaged and pulled in every way. However, as inexpensive shoes enter the European market large sizes from China is becoming more and more every year. In order not to be mistaken with the choice of your size, you can use the following plate.
Foot length | Russia (size) | Europe (size) | China (size) |
Obviously, the determination of the size of boots for the stronger sex is carried out according to the same method as for women. To translate Chinese shoe size into Russian, you also need to use the table.
Foot length | Russia (size) | Europe (size) | China (size) |
Choice comfortable shoes- the matter is purely individual, therefore, despite the fact that now you know how to determine the size of Chinese shoes, fitting should be the main criterion when buying. But if you nevertheless decide to make a purchase in an online store, remember: shoes from China are almost always undersized, so it would be wise to contact the seller in advance and clarify all the details before the payment is made.
Offers millions of different things. If you order clothes from China, then you save a lot, because in the stores of your city similar goods are sold, but with a wrap.
Even if you saw a familiar combination of numbers or letters indicating the size, do not rush, because the difference in size can reach two sizes.
