One of the biggest challenges in international shopping is size differences. Korea uses numbers (85, 90, 95) or mm, while the US uses letters (S, M, L) or inches, and Europe has its own numbering system. This converter instantly shows US, EU, UK, and Japan equivalents for Korean sizes.
When purchasing from Amazon, Zara, H&M, or other international retailers, convert your Korean size to the local size system.
When shopping at local stores during travel in Japan, Europe, etc., use the conversion chart to quickly find your size.
When buying international brand clothing or shoes as gifts, convert the recipient's Korean size to the correct international size.
Korea uses chest/waist circumference in cm (85, 90, 95), while the US uses letters (XS-XL) or even numbers (2, 4, 6, 8). Korean 95 equals US M, and Korean 100 is close to US L.
Stand barefoot with heel against a wall and measure to your longest toe in mm. For example, 250mm is Korean 250, US men's 7, EU 40. Measure both feet and use the larger one.
Europe mostly uses unified EU sizing, but some countries like Italy or France may have their own. Most global brands follow standard EU sizing.
Different size systems reflect body shape differences. Men's sizes use chest/waist (85, 90, 95), women's use numbers like 44, 55, 66, 77, 88 or letters (S, M, L).
Similar but not identical. For shoes, Japan uses cm (25.0cm) while Korea uses mm (250mm) - same actual size. For clothing, Japan primarily uses S, M, L, with Korean 95 roughly matching Japanese M.
Each brand has its own fit and design philosophy, so the same labeled size may have different actual measurements. Always check detailed measurements for accurate purchases.
This converter currently supports only adult sizes. Children's clothing uses a separate system based on age and height.
Clothing size systems have evolved differently around the world. Korea uses numbers based on chest/waist circumference in cm (men: 85, 90, 95 / women: 44, 55, 66). The US uses letters (XS, S, M, L, XL) or even numbers (0, 2, 4, 6, 8), while Europe uses its own numeric system (32–48). Japan primarily uses S, M, L and is similar to Korea. Even the same label can have different actual measurements depending on a brand's fit philosophy, so checking detailed measurements (bust, waist, hip) directly is the most accurate approach.
Comparing sizes that often cause confusion in international shopping: Korean men's 95 equals US M, EU 48, UK 38, and Japan M. For women's clothing, Korean 66 equals US 6–8, EU 36–38, and UK 10–12. For shoes, Korean 260mm equals US men's 8, EU 41, UK 7.5, and Japan 26.0cm. Italian or French luxury brands may use their own size systems, so always check the brand's official size guide before purchasing.
For accurate size measurement, use a tape measure on key body areas. For tops, measure chest circumference below the armpits; for bottoms, measure the narrowest waist and widest hip circumference. For shoes, stand barefoot with heel against a wall and measure to your longest toe in mm. Measuring in the afternoon accounts for slight foot swelling throughout the day, helping you choose a more comfortable size. If both feet differ in size, use the larger foot as your reference.
