ASICS sizing, explained for India

ASICS sizing explained for Indian buyers. Men's UK = US minus 1, women's UK = US minus 2, full UK/US/EU/CM conversion tables, and how to measure your foot before ordering.

The one rule

For ASICS men's shoes, UK = US minus 1. A US 10 is a UK 9. For women's shoes it is UK = US minus 2. Applying the men's rule to a women's shoe puts you a full size out, which is the most common sizing mistake we see.

Why this is confusing in India

Indian retail is inconsistent. Some sellers list US sizes, some UK, some print both on the box and neither in the listing. ASICS boxes usually show US, UK, EU and CM together, but marketplace listings often show only one and do not always say which.

We list everything in UK sizes, matching Amazon India's convention for footwear, so a UK 9 here is a UK 9 there.

Men's and unisex conversion

Verified against ASICS' published size chart. Every men's ASICS we sell follows this, across cricket, running, tennis, badminton and padel.

Women's conversion, and the two-size gap

Women's ASICS run on a different scale. The gap is two sizes, not one. A women's US 8 is a UK 6, where a men's US 8 is a UK 7.

Women's ASICS style codes generally begin 1012. Men's and unisex begin 1011, 1013, 1041, 1071, 1111 or 1113. If a listing shows the style code, that tells you which chart applies.

The reliable method: measure in centimetres

UK and US conversions are consistent, but brands cut differently. Centimetres are the only measurement that does not lie.

  1. Stand on paper with your heel against a wall, late in the day when your feet are largest.
  2. Mark the tip of your longest toe, which is not always the big toe.
  3. Measure heel to mark in centimetres. Do both feet; they differ, and you buy for the larger.
  4. Add 0.5 to 1.0cm for running and cricket, where the foot slides forward on impact.
  5. Match the total to the CM column above.

Cricket shoes fit differently

Cricket spikes are cut narrower and more securely than running shoes, because lateral stability through the delivery stride matters more than toe splay. If you are between sizes and plan to bowl, take the larger size. A foot sliding forward inside a spike on landing is how toenails are lost.

For fielding rubbers worn all day, prioritise width and comfort over lockdown.

Before you order

We do not accept returns for sizing, so it is worth being certain. Measure in centimetres, check the table, and if you are between sizes or unsure about a model, message us. We will check that shoe's fit and answer honestly. We would rather answer a question than ship a pair you cannot wear.

Common questions

What is UK size 9 in US for ASICS?

For men's and unisex ASICS, UK 9 equals US 10, one full size up. For women's ASICS, UK 9 equals US 11, because the women's gap is two sizes rather than one.

Do ASICS run true to size?

Yes, ASICS are generally true to size. The confusion is almost never the shoe itself, it is US versus UK labelling, and applying the men's conversion to a women's shoe.

Should I size up in cricket shoes?

If you are between sizes and intend to bowl, yes. Cricket spikes are cut narrow for lateral stability and the foot slides forward on landing. For fielding rubbers worn all day, comfort and width matter more.

How do I measure my foot size at home in CM?

Stand on paper with your heel to a wall, late in the day. Mark your longest toe, measure heel to mark in centimetres, and do both feet. Add 0.5 to 1.0cm for running or cricket, then match to the CM column in the chart.

Are the sizes on FlexX UK or US?

All sizes on FlexX are UK, the same convention Amazon India uses for footwear. Every product page states 'Select size (UK men's)' above the size chips.
