RedBack Boots Sizing Guide
As an Australian brand, RedBack manufactures its boots in UK sizes. To buy your boots, you need to know how you can get the perfect fitting if you are used to wearing a US size.
UK sizes are 1 size smaller than US sizing. So to convert your shoe according to the RedBack size chart, you have to get one size smaller pair and vice versa.
For instance, a US 4 is a RedBack 3. So, when I got my RedBack unisex-adult Ubbk I went down one size and the fit was great. I’m a US 6 so I ordered 5. I can work all day wearing them without any foot pain.
This particular review from Amazon will clear your confusion while giving you the proper idea about which size you need to get,
“Best boots I’ve ever owned. I’m an aircraft maintenance engineer, I work indoors and outdoors in any temperature and on many surfaces. The boots hold up well against oils, greases, acids and cleaners. Exceedingly comfortable. Only complaint is they fit larger than you expect, and they stretch out about another 1/2 size. I had to purchase a set of insoles.
Make sure to get a good leather conditioner to keep it supple.”
So, it’s clear that RedBack unisex-adult Ubbk will stretch and there is a possibility that the fit will loosen over time. I got my actual size 5, and as I use a leather conditioner, the snug fit is still the same after almost one year.
However, US women’s size is also different in UK parameters. To be exact, RedBack Female boots are 2 to 2.5 sizes smaller compared to US sizes.
Let me clarify for you.
My friend wears US 5.5 boots and RedBack 3 fits her perfectly. Later when she bought a different model, size 4 fitted her and 3 felt smaller so, she ended up getting size 4 in RedBack.
Therefore, the best solution is to try these boots before buying and follow the sizing chart provided by RedBack otherwise, the fit may vary, and you won’t get the exact size.
RedBack size chart:
| RedBack UK | Men’s US | Women’s US | Foot Length mm |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 4 | 5.5 | 230 |
| 3/4 | 4.5 | 6 | 230/235 |
| 4 | 5 | 6.5 | 235 |
| 4.5 | 5.5 | 7 | 235 |
| 5 | 6 | 7.5 | 245 |
| 5.5 | 6.5 | 8 | 245 |
| 6 | 7 | 8.5 | 250 |
| 6.5 | 7.5 | 9 | 250 |
| 7 | 8 | 9.5 | 260 |
| 7.5 | 8.5 | 10 | 260 |
| 8 | 9 | 10.5 | 270 |
| 8.5 | 9.5 | 11 | 270 |
| 9 | 10 | 11.5 | 280 |
| 9.5 | 10.5 | 11 | 280 |
Again from the chart you can see, for half sizes(0.5) there is no difference in mm. So if you are converting your foot size to millimeters, make sure you follow the table very carefully.
Most brands like the Red Wing Boots have their size guide to lead you towards your perfect fitted boots for any occasion and season as well.
