Important information about sizing
WIFA boots are generally cut larger than normal street shoes.
With STREET Suede you need less toe space than with STREET Deluxe & Xtreme, because
the leather is softer and more elastic and therefore adapts better to the shape of the foot.
As a rule of thumb, the following applies:
for STREET Deluxe & Xtreme, either the same size as the normal street shoes (wide feet) or
or half a size smaller. For STREET Suede, it can be up to a whole size smaller than the normal
street shoe.
Example:
A skater with a street shoe size 39 (UK6) , will usually wear a STREET Deluxe &
Xtreme 38.5 (UK 5.5), or a STREET Suede 38 (UK 5).
TECHNICAL GUIDE & TUTORIALS
When determining the correct size, the shape of the foot is also important. You can find the
foot shapes in the Technical Guide 4https://wifa.at/wifa-catalog. If you have a Roman
foot shape, you need more toe space, as WIFA shoes are slightly narrower at the toe area.
Under „Videos > Tutorials“ you will also find our video tutorials for foot measurement and size
selection!4https://wifa.at/wifa-video-tutorials.
INSOLES PRINTS
As a final check you can print out the respective soles and put your foot on them - templates
in PDF format can be found on our website under „Sizes & Widths > Print insoles4 https://
wifa.at/wifa-insoles. Especially skaters with a Roman foot shape will be able to better
estimate how much toe room they need for their personal comfort.
CAUTION!
Please measure the inner soles shortly after printing the A4 sheet to be on the safe side
because of possible transfer distortions.
A toe space of 4-10mm has to be added depending on foot shape and age (space for
gowth).
