Hoka and Adidas use different women’s size conversions. Compare the US, UK and EU labels before switching brands.

| 8 | 7.5 | 41 1/3 | 7.5 | 41 1/3 |
| 9 | 8.5 | 42 2/3 | 8.5 | 42 2/3 |
| 10 | 9.5 | 44 | 9.5 | 44 |

Read these as label comparisons
Each row compares the same US size number within one category. These are not measured-foot-length equivalents or a guarantee that the shoes fit identically. Use the manufacturer’s measurement instructions and the product’s own chart to choose a size.
Where the charts differ
In these examples, the men’s US, UK and EU labels match. The women’s labels do not: a women’s US 8 is Hoka UK 6 / EU 39 1/3, compared with Adidas UK 6.5 / EU 40. Matching the US number does not mean the two shoes have identical dimensions.
Adidas lists a one-size difference between its men’s and women’s US labels for the same chart row. Do not apply that rule to every Hoka model.
Check model-specific Hoka sizing
Hoka flags a women’s UK-sizing change for the Clifton 10, Arahi 8 and Challenger 8. Its all-gender conversions also vary by model. Check those notes before applying the general chart above.
Before choosing your size
Measure both feet while standing and use the longer measurement with the brand’s current chart. Try the shoes with the socks you will wear. Check that your heel is secure, your toes have space and the upper does not pinch.
