▷ How to measure your feet (video)
Size chart:
Measure your feet (with your heel against a wall, up to your longest toe). Add 1-1.5 cm for extra room inside the shoes and follow the size information in the size chart.
Example: Your foot size is 25.2. Then choose size 41 and you will have 1.2 cm extra.
These shoes are checked and measured by us at Widetoes.

Feel on foot:
- An incredibly comfortable shoe with soft materials that feels great on the foot, even though it’s a Gore-Tex shoe. The sole feels well cushioned yet stable and responsive. As soon as you put them on, you’ll want to head out for a long run. Lina normally wears a size 37, and Torin also fits her well in size 37. Size 37.5 feels slightly too long, so I would say the shoe is fairly true to size. Lina has a wide, medium-volume foot, and the Torin Wide feels a little too wide for her. Torin 8 GTX also has quite a wide last and works well if she loosens the lacing so the foot can spread out properly.
Torin 8 GTX is the perfect choice for runners looking for a well-cushioned, comfortable and weather-resistant road shoe with a natural ride!
