Why Shoe Size Varies Across Brands
Different footwear manufacturers use different shoe lasts. Narrow fashion shoes constrict the forefoot, forcing buyers to size up. At SoleRoot, our footwear is sculpted around podiatric foot lasts that give your toes room to splay naturally while keeping your heel firmly seated in deep shock-absorbing cups.
