Optimally a trace of the inside sole?

Or using a tape measure to get the internal sole length, which is usually foot length + 0.5cm for a fitting shoe?

Gonna go with 10.5 Reebok Oly's (the only shoe I own in any of the companies reviewed on this site is a pair of sz 10 Adidas Sambas…but i wear a 9.5 Converse…and a 10.5 Vans!)

I may wear a size 9 Reebok and a size 8 Converse, but someone else may wear a 9 and 8.5 (I've actually seen this) so putting up a chart using a specific shoe as a base comparison will probably not work either. Although it is probably a better idea than what all the retailers say, i.e. "Go one-half size down from your regular athletic shoe". Wow, really… which shoe? My Vibrams, New Balance or my Nike Frees? It's definitely something to consider.

as in…GENERALLY, will a sz 10 Reebok translate to a sz 10 Adidas and Nike as well…?? We all know Adidas is narrower etc…I'm just talking general overall sizing comparison. Not how Perfect or Comfortable it is, but again, a general comparison.

I apologize if this is covered in detail somewhere else. I looked and could not find anything. Just very interesting…

Maybe, comparing every brand to a Converse Chuck sizing would have some utility in it…almost anyone can find some Chucks to try on…
