BOOT LASTS & SIZE CHARTS
To find out your Zamberlan footwear size, measure the distance from the back of your heel to the tip of your longest toe. For a realistic measurement, do this while wearing a pair of socks.
Here's how to do it:
- Place a sheet of paper on the floor and trace your foot with your heel against a wall, making sure to keep your foot perpendicular to the wall
- Measure the outline from the back of your heel to the front of your toes.
- Find this measurement in the chart below, corresponding to the selected LAST for the model you are considering. Note, if you are between two measurements, use the next biggest cell to the right.
- Repeat these steps for both feet. If one foot is bigger than the other, order the size that fits your bigger foot.
- Follow the column down and find your Zamberlan US size.
Tip #1:
It is not uncommon for some Zamberlan customers to find their ideal size is ½ size smaller than what they may use in their everyday footwear. While most find Zamberlan runs “true to size”, some have to size down by this ½ size to get an ideal fit.
Tip #2:
Due to the technical nature of our footwear, particularly the stiff midsoles in our backpacking boots, getting the correct size is of paramount importance. Get too big of a boot, and you may be subject to heel blisters caused by heel slippage. Get too small of a boot, and you may endure toe rubbing and cramping.
It pays to take your time and get it right! If you are not able to try on multiple sizes, try the tips and foot measuring approach detailed above.
LACES SIZE CHART
Generally speaking, lace sizes correlate to the specific boot for which they are purchased. However, in some cases, a boot that normally requires a specific lace size may require a longer lace if the boot size is on the right side of the size chart. For example, if you have a size M14 Vioz GTX, then instead of a 150cm lace, you will want a 175cm lace. The best way to ensure you have the correct replacement lace for your boot is to measure your existing lace.
The general size chart for laces is as follows:
125cm - Low cut shoes
150cm - 5" and 6" hikers
175cm - 8" semi-tall boots and larger size 6" hikers
190cm - 11" tall boots, and larger size 8" semi-tall boots
205cm - 11" tall boots, larger sizes
