KOIO How to Measure Your Foot

Follow these simple steps to find your perfect size. You'll need a ruler and a sheet of paper.

1. Place the sheet of paper against a wall or straight edge.

2. Position one foot along the sheet of paper, pressed against the wall.

3. Align a ruler beside your foot.

4. Measure the length in centimeters or inches from the tip of your longest toe.

5. Repeat the process for your other foot.

Compare your measurements with the size chart. If your foot measurement falls between sizes, choose the larger size.

How can we sell a $600 shoe for $245?

We cut out the middlemen.




Our Value


At Koio we’re striving to make the most valuable shoe on the market. For us, value doesn’t come from an outrageous ticket price; it comes from pairing ethics with the highest-quality Italian materials and craftsmanship to create the best shoe we can, and pricing it at a fair margin that allows us to do business sustainably.




Our Quality


Each of our shoes passes through the hands of 42 craftspeople at our manufacturer in Italy, using locally sourced premium leathers, suedes, and recycled materials. We’re creating footwear that’s matched only by the world’s most renown luxury brands in its dedication to quality. How do we know? Because we see their shoes being manufactured next to ours by the same craftspeople.







Don’t get us started on retailers. Italian leather shoes of comparable craftsmanship are sold for twice the price of Koios or more. When a luxury brand sells a shoe to a retailer, the retailer applies a markup of at least 100% to the wholesale price—the price that they are paying the luxury brand—in order to come up with the price that you are seeing in the store. When you buy a pair of $600 leather shoes through retail, at least half your money goes to the store location.




We get around the unnecessarily pricey world of traditional retail by selling the finest Italian leather shoes directly to you.


Here's to getting the best value for your money.

    These shoes are crafted nicely!

    The shoes are crafted with impressive attention to detail, and the stitching is so precise that I couldn't find anything to criticize. I purchased this pair for a relative in size US 10. Their foot measures 27.1-27.2 cm in length and 10 cm in width.

    The fit is slightly loose around the heel, which might require adding an insole or heel insert. However, widthwise, they fit well. We found that the shoes run about half a size longer. Based on the size chart, we might have opted for a US 9 or a US 11 (women's size), as these shoes are unisex. They are, however, true to size according to the size chart.

    When handled, the shoes feel a bit heavier and bulkier than anticipated, but the color is perfect—exactly as pictured. I rated comfort a 4 out of 5, as we haven’t had a chance to wear them for an extended period yet.

    Good shoes overall

    The shoes are crafted impressively well, with stitching so precise that I couldn't find anything to criticize. I purchased a size US 10, and my feet measure 27.8 cm in length and 10.2 cm in width. The fit is snug yet comfortable, and they are true to size according to the size chart. For me, they will require some breaking in, and the leather lining will need some getting used to. The shoes feel a bit heavier and bulkier than I anticipated, but the color is spot-on—exactly as pictured. I rated comfort a 4 because I haven’t had a chance to wear them for an extended period.

    The Shoes I Had Been Searching For

    I really love these shoes. I had been looking for something like this a long time when I read about them in the WSJ. I ordered them right away and they were delivered in a flash. They certainly won't be my last pair.
