Combination measuring device - US sizes…

So cool since no footwear place offers this anymore! Just like I remember as a kid! Quality is 100% fantastic! Nice to have for a family to correctly measure your shoe size!

I walk a lot for the exercise, so I need a high-quality shoe. Unfortunately, with my wide foot, finding shoes locally can be a problem. And to make an investment in orthopedic shoes from on online supplier is challenging as you hope to select the right size. When my left foot started bothering me, I decided to invest in top-quality shoes. I purchased this Brannock measuring device. Right out of the box, I noticed this was commercial-grade quality. The instructions are simple to understand and with plenty of helpful graphics and diagrams. Men-women sizes are color-coded. Three critical measurements are made: heel-to-toe length, heel-to-ball length, and foot width. Armed with this information, I visited a quality shoe store that sells the more expensive shoes, to test the accuracy of my measurements. I found the shoe size, tried them on, and they were a perfect fit. I recall the days when most shoe salespeople would use one of these devices to accurately get your shoe size, but I don't know if they even do this anymore. This Brannock tool, although on the expensive side in my opinion, is well worth the price if you are serious about spending your hard-earned money on a nice-fitting pair of shoes.

This helped me identify the correct motorcycle riding shoe size when buying online.

This product is essentially the same one that shoe stores have used to measure feet for most of the past century. I bought this so that I could measure my feet at home--in different thicknesses of socks, etc. The whole idea is to get an accurate size measurement of one's foot, which this product does just fine. I suspect that a lot of people, like me, will buy this product to get their correct shoe/boot size, so that they can buy shoes and boots online and not guess about their size or have to go off to a brick-and-mortar shoe store somewhere to get their foot measured and to try on shoes or boots. So, you would assume that having the correct shoe size measured with a quality tool like this would eliminate a lot of guesswork and "buy-and-return-because-it's-the-wrong-size" hassles, right? Well, you'd might as well get over that. The hard truth is that, apparently, the shoe and boot makers no longer really give a darn whether or not their boots or shoe size specifications meet the common standard that this device is designed to measure. Sadly, as well-built and well-designed as the Brannock Device is, it likely won't save you from the nightmare of buying shoes or boots online in exactly the size the Brannock device measures, only to find out that shoe or boot that you are buying is not sized by the manufacturer even close to what it should be. The one thing that the Brannock Device will tell you is how completely awful shoe and boot sizing has gotten. Oh, and the sizing can be way off on both American and foreign shoes and boots, as well as across the price spectrum. The Brannock Device is a great product, but it takes little of the hassle out of trying to get a correctly fitting shoe or boot when buying online.

This thing saved my feet, I live in a small town that doesnt have any shoe stores so I just buy online and have been buying the wrong size too small. I started getting pains and calloses so I decided to get this foot measuring device and found out I needed bigger and wider shoes.

My shoe size is 14 (male). Full stop. This device INSISTS it's a 13 (male) -- I can't even get my foot in a 13. It's wrong. It insists I have a narrow foot. I do not. I wear an "E" width. But it's a classic device and it does what it's supposed to do. Not sure why it's so far off. And why it was so expensive for what it does.

I stumbled on this shoe size measuring device on Amazon by accident. Throughout the years I have seen them in shoe stores and department stores. But with the advent of online shoe sales, this is now extremely practical for home use. The combination mens/women's device is great. No reason to buy a separate one for each. It is made of metal, like the original design when it was invented way before my time. This is a quality product that will outlive anyone reading this. It is also something that is timeless and future generations will be able to use it. Another reason you would want your own device is your foot size changes depending on your activity and measuring it after exercising is perfect for gym shoes, running shoes or dance shoes. The measurements from this device are what shoe manufactures use to create shoes. This not only measures the length but the critically important arch measurement. The arch measurement could change the overall shoe size. This device also measures the foot width all at the same time. This is important to prevent you from buying a shoe too narrow or too wide. If you have children and buy shoes online, I would also recommend buying the one for children's shoes. You will also be surprised to find out your exact shoe size. You are probably wearing shoes that are sloppy on your feet. A properly fitted shoe is critically important for running or dancing. Now keep in mind that there are variances in how manufactures design shoes so an individual shoe may note fit perfectly. But this measurement will get you very close to perfection. I highly recommend this product.

I was tired of tracing my feet, measuring, and still guessing my shoe size. This is the real deal we grew up with professional shoe salespeople using. Now I can easily measure my own feet confidently any time I want. Follow the directions and it is easy.

Could have more options for foot measurements. Right now only 2 is possible

Great Product, Very impressed, tried some of the cheaper ones before this one, which all got returned.

Perfect for ordering shoes online!

well made item will do what i want it to do

This product is awesome and it's made of cast aluminium, meaning every part is not your regular plastic crap. All works as it should with a nice simple illustration sheet and if you get stuck trying to figure it all out? Just go to YouTube and put in the search "branock device" and there is an awesome short tutorial for you to watch. Highly recommend.
