Athletic Men's Tennis Sneakers: Style & Performance

Measuring Notes

• Wear the type of socks you plan to wear with your shoes.
• Measure feet in the afternoon or evening as feet typically swell throughout the day.
• The measuring steps also work for kids.

Additional Tips

• The standard (medium) width for women is B, while narrow is 2A, wide is D and extra wide is 2E.
• The standard width for men is D, while narrow is B, wide is 2E and extra wide is 4E.
• If you are prone to blisters and calluses, or if your foot falls asleep or cramps during activity, this could be a sign that your shoes are too small.
• Don’t be afraid to go a half size up! Most people buying athletic footwear will choose a half size to a full size up from their dress shoe.
• If your heel is slipping, try to lace the shoes differently or try a different insole before sizing down.
• If you have problems with bunions or circulation, try a wider size to reduce irritation.
• It is not uncommon for your feet to be different sizes, make sure you measure both right and left and use the longest foot measurement.
• Not everyone’s “big toe” is the longest; make sure you are using the longest toe as a reference point.
• If you are fitting a child, you may want to buy a slightly larger size to allow room to grow.
• Kids' sizing is based on Men's sizing.

Ensure a Proper Fit

• While wearing your new shoes…
• Tap your heel back into the shoe. Ensure your heel is as far back in the shoe as possible.
• Have someone use their thumb to push down on the end of the shoe.
• There should be half a thumb width from the end of your toe to the end of the shoe.
• Note: This is suggestive sizing. Factors such as brand, arch type, foot shape, personal preference and activity will alter the way footwear should fit.
• For additional help sizing your foot, visit your local DICK’S Sporting Goods for assistance.
