How to Get Your Ice Skate Size

Put a measuring tape or ruler on a level surface. One end should be set against the wall. Stand on the ruler / measuring tape. The heel needs to be against the wall. Stand straight up with pressure on the feet. Measure from the heel to the toe. Repeat the process for both feet.

If the feet length is not equal, use the longer foot for making your choice. Now compare this with the figures given here. Again, if the size feels too tight or too loose, add half an inch or so. It might take a while to feel comfortable, so give yourself time to adjust as well.
 
The ice skate size provided here is a general guideline. Some manufacturers might use different scaling systems. However, the method for getting your feet size is valid regardless of the skate sizing method used.
