Shopping How to choose shoe sizes ?

Jul 24, 2022

Watch Thread
    1. I’m getting a 75cm doll whose foot length is stated as 8.5cm * 3.2cm. There are 2 shoe options available
      SD 8.5
      70cm 9.5.
      The width isn’t stated on these one. Would I be better off getting the 9.5cm ones? A cm difference seems really big though. Or should I look for 9cm shoes?

    2. Hi, there isn't standard sizes for BJD shoes unless you buy directly from the dollmaker so this is a bit long.

      I would get the bigger ones. The doll's feet don't bend and the shoes are usually measured from the outside length and width not the inside of the shoe. If you want the doll to wear socks with the shoes they will need some room too so 9.5cm should work. The width can make a difference in how the shoe looks so if you are looking for a really close fit it might be worth it to check with the seller.
