Mondopoint
Mondopoint is an internationally recognized measurement system for shoe sizes, based on the precise length and width of the foot in millimeters. Originally developed for sizing ski boots, this system was created to ensure a uniform sizing standard. Nowadays, the metric system provides a precise and standardized method of determining sizes, setting it apart from traditional shoe size measurements.
Application in the Safety Shoe Industry:
In the safety shoe industry, an accurate fit is crucial. These shoes are often worn for 8 hours a day and must reliably protect the wearer. The correct width of the shoe plays a critical role here. Many buyers might assume they need a larger shoe size due to the integrated protective cap. However, the size of safety shoes is designed to correspond to conventional shoe sizes.
Width 11 as a Common Standard:
Over 75% of safety shoe wearers prefer width 11 for an optimal fit. However, this width doesn't always meet the requirements of everyone. Especially people with wider feet or certain foot shapes like flat or high arches often need more space in the front shoe area. Therefore, some manufacturers produce models up to width 14. The width of a shoe in the Mondopoint system is measured at the widest part of the foot - between the big toe and the little toe's base joint.
Inconsistent Width Designations Among Manufacturers:
Although the Mondopoint system has established itself in the safety shoe industry, there are differences in the designations depending on the manufacturer. Some use numbers like 10, 11, or 12, while others use terms like L, XXL, or S/M/L. Therefore, it is advisable to pay close attention to the size designations of the respective manufacturer.
