There's more to it than you think...

“The size you wore when you’re 18 might not be the same size you wear when you’re 42, just like you’re probably not wearing the same size pants,” Gray says. “And that’s okay. But we need to get those measurements to know how to change it.” In fact, he recommends getting measured once a year.

At RunAbout Sports, the fitting process starts with measuring both feet while you’re standing up. That’s important, because there can be as much as full size-worth of difference between your right and left, Bowersock says. You’ll want a shoe that fits the bigger foot. Put the insert back in and put the shoes on. Lace them tightly enough to lock the shoe over your navicular bone—the bony bump over the high point of your arch—or instep, Gray says, but not so tightly that you constrict nerves and blood vessels. You should be able to slide a finger between the knot and your shoe, Vincent says.

Repeat until things feel just right. Don’t settle for something cramped thinking you’ll break them in; they should fit properly right from the start, Vincent says. While some parts of the shoe—including the midsole and cushioning—may change for the better with mild wear, that doesn’t affect the sizing or fit, Gray says.
