General Yeezy Sizing Overview
Unlike many sneaker lines that maintain consistent sizing across models, Yeezys vary significantly depending on the silhouette. Here's a quick reference guide:
Yeezy Model | Sizing Tendency | Width Profile | Recommendation |
---|---|---|---|
Yeezy 350 V2 | Runs small | Narrow to medium | +0.5 UK size (or +1 for wide feet) |
Yeezy 380 | Runs small | Medium | +0.5 UK size |
Yeezy 500 | True to size | Medium to wide | TTS for most feet |
Yeezy 700 | True to size | Medium to wide | TTS for most feet |
Yeezy Slides | Runs very small | Narrow | +1 UK size (or +2 for wide feet) |
Yeezy Foam Runner | Runs small | Medium | +1 UK size |
Yeezy 450 | Runs small | Narrow | +0.5 UK size (or +1 for wide feet) |
TTS = True to Size (your regular UK size)
Yeezy 350 V2 Sizing Guide
The Yeezy 350 V2 is the most popular Yeezy silhouette, but also one of the most challenging in terms of sizing. Here's what you need to know:
- •Fit profile: Snug, especially in the toe box and midfoot
- •Primeknit upper: Has some stretch but is constrained by internal structure
- •Heel tab versions: Models with heel tabs fit slightly tighter in the heel
- •Breaking in: Will loosen slightly with wear but not significantly
UK Recommendation: Go up 0.5 UK size from your standard size. If you have wide feet, consider going up a full UK size.
Yeezy 700 Sizing Guide
The Yeezy 700 line (including V1, V2, and V3 models) offers a more generous fit than the 350 series:
- •Fit profile: More accommodating than 350s, with a roomier toe box
- •V1 vs V2 vs V3: V3 fits slightly more snug than V1 and V2
- •Materials: Less stretch than 350s but more structured support
- •Width: Accommodates wider feet better than most Yeezy models
UK Recommendation: True to size for most feet. The 700 is one of the more forgiving models in the Yeezy line.
Yeezy Slides Sizing Guide
Yeezy Slides are notorious for their small sizing and lack of half sizes, making them particularly challenging:
- •Fit profile: Extremely small compared to standard UK sizing
- •No half sizes: Only available in full sizes, complicating sizing
- •Material: Foam construction with minimal give or stretch
- •Heel design: Open heel means slides must fit snugly to stay on
UK Recommendation: Go up at least 1 full UK size from your standard size. If you have wide feet or are between sizes, go up 2 full UK sizes.
Yeezy Foam Runner Sizing Guide
Yeezy Foam Runners have a unique fit due to their molded foam construction and distinctive shape:
- •Fit profile: Runs small with a distinctive footbed shape
- •No half sizes: Only available in full sizes
- •Material: Algae-infused EVA foam with minimal flexibility
- •Perforations: Provide some accommodation for width but not length
UK Recommendation: Go up 1 full UK size from your standard size. If between sizes, always size up rather than down.
Special Considerations for UK Sneakerheads
Wide Feet Solutions
If you have wide feet, here are Yeezy models that tend to work best:
- 1Yeezy 500: The most accommodating for wide feet with a roomy toe box
- 2Yeezy 700 V1 & V2: Generous width with good structure
- 3Yeezy QNTM: Basketball-inspired design with more width
- 4Yeezy 380: More forgiving than 350s for wide feet
Models to approach with caution if you have wide feet:
- 1Yeezy 350 V2: Narrow toe box can be restrictive
- 2Yeezy Slides: Narrow footbed with minimal give
- 3Yeezy 450: Very narrow with sock-like fit
Material Considerations
Different Yeezy materials affect fit and comfort:
Primeknit
Used in 350s and 380s. Has some stretch but is constrained by internal structure. Will conform somewhat to your foot over time.
Mesh & Suede
Found on 700s. Less stretch than Primeknit but more structured. Provides better support for all-day wear.
EVA Foam
Used in Slides and Foam Runners. Minimal give or stretch. What you feel when you first try them on is what you get.
Neoprene
Found in 450s and some QNTM models. Sock-like fit that hugs the foot. Limited stretch but comfortable when sized correctly.
Boost Midsole
Present in most Yeezy models. Will compress slightly with wear, potentially creating more room over time.
Reflective Materials
Reflective versions of 350s and other models tend to fit slightly more snug than their non-reflective counterparts.

Finding your perfect Yeezy size requires understanding the specific model's characteristics and how they relate to your foot shape. Remember that most Yeezy models run small compared to standard UK sizing, with the 500 and 700 being the notable exceptions that run true to size.
When in doubt, we recommend measuring your foot in centimeters and comparing to the size chart, or asking for insole measurements when purchasing past-season Yeezys.
