To easily measure your feet at home, place your heel against a wall and lay a flat object across the length of your longest toe. Measure the length in mm and choose the longest foot for your final size. To measure the width of your foot, stand on a firm surface and wrap a flexible tape measure around the widest part of your foot – near the big and little toe joints. Record the length in mm and choose the widest foot for the final result. Please note, this is a guide only and we cannot guarantee the correct fit.

You can choose your best size by accurately measuring your feet at home and referring to our online size guide. Styles can be a personal preference, but some may be more suited to certain foot conditions than others. Contact our customer service team for more information.

Information regarding the sizing and fittings can be found either on our fit chart that is located at the bottom of the website or we do have information on the size/fitting on each individual product.

Unfortunately, there is no straight conversion; however, we do have a chart as seen below.  

UK SIZE        3-3½      4       4½=5       5½      6-6½       7-7½       8         8½-9         9½       10-10½        11       12        13

To maintain the unique Padders feelgoodfeet feeling, we advise following the care guidelines below.

To care for shoes with a smooth shiny leather, we suggest to wipe clean with a damp cloth, allow to dry naturally and then apply a good quality polish or cream.

For waxed/oily leathers, we suggest wiping off the excess dirt and brush to remove any remaining surface marks.

For any nubuck, we suggest allowing the shoes to dry naturally before brushing off loose dirt with a soft brush.

We also suggest a waterproof spray, which will guard against staining and water penetration, however they still allow the leather to breathe.

Waterproof footwear can be maintained by using a waterproof leather conditioner, cream or waterproof dubbing.

Padders shoes should not be stored in warm, humid conditions. Do not store unused for extended periods.

We recommend hand washing Padders slippers in warm soapy water and leaving them to air dry. Avoid soaking the soles for long periods of time.

Our dual-fit system provides the benefit of two insoles, one which can be removed to provide a deeper and wider fit for extra comfort if needed.

We’ve developed a range of Padotics to help alleviate pain associated with a range of foot problems. To complement our specialised Padotics, we’ve designed a collection of Padotics Friendly shoes. They offer the benefit of enhanced comfort and extra support without the loss of fit.

Yes, many of our slippers feature a memory foam footbed which moulds to the natural contours of your feet, ensuring all-day comfort when at home. 

We have a range of special footbed styles to cater to the needs of all customers. Whether you are looking for extra comfort, additional support or shock-absorbing footbeds, we have something for you.

No, we apologise we are currently unable to offer this service.

Yes, Padders are stocked in a number of overseas countries. You can view our international stockists here.

We hope you’ll love every Padders purchase you make, but if you need to return an item you can do so within 30 days of receipt.

Unfortunately, our free returns service is available for UK orders only. Orders placed from outside the UK have to be returned at the customers costs.

Unfortunately, Padders cannot cover the costs of international returns.
