How do I know what size I am?
Buying shoes online can be tricky! We have size charts for every brand to help you determine the ideal sizing for you.
A great way to know what size will suit you the best is to check the shoes you already own. Often the size can be found on the inner tongue of the shoe. Take this size and compare it to our products online to get an idea of which size will be most suitable.
While sizing varies slightly between brands, this is an ideal reference while shopping online.
When looking at your desired item on our site, click on "View Size Chart". This will pull up the size chart for that particular brand for your reference.
PLEASE NOTE: when you click into a product, it will automatically display in the default sizing for that particular shoe. You can select the drop-down button and convert the sizing over.

How does unisex sizing work?
Unisex sizing follows the Mens size curve.
Sizing will vary between each brand. We understand sizing can be quite tricky so we recommend using the size selector which is located on each product page. If you already have an existing shoe in the same brand, that's usually a good indicator of the size!
Select a size and toggle between Men’s/Women’s/UK/EU to find your size conversion.
When purchasing an item from a unisex range or brand, your invoice will reflect the default US Men's size, so there is no need to be concerned that you've ordered the wrong size!
For example, you might be a US Womens 7 however it will show as US Mens 5 at the checkout and on your order confirmation. In this instance, a US Mens 5 is equivalent to a US Womens 7!

What size should I wear if the shoe isn't available in half sizes?
We know that sometimes it's difficult figuring out what size to purchase when shopping online.
If you usually wear a half size, we normally recommend sizing up to the next whole size. You want to have some clearance between your toes and the end of the shoe.
You can check out our size guide for more information!
If you don't get the size quite right, you're welcome to head into your closest Platypus store and exchange for an alternate size, as long as the shoes still meet our Returns Policy. We recommend giving the store a call beforehand to double-check that they have the size you're after in stock.
Please note that if you purchased with PayPal we won't be able to refund in-store, but we can definitely organize a change of size for you.
