How John White shoes fit
How John White shoes fit
Order your everyday UK size. We make whole UK sizes only, so if you wear a half size in other brands, check the note for your shoe below: most of our styles suit the full size above. A snug fit at first is normal and eases with wear. If the size is not right, an unworn pair can be exchanged free within 30 days.
Every shoe below carries the same fit note as its own page.
