EMU Australia Size Chart

Sizing for EMU Australia sheepskin boots, slippers and wool footwear for women, men, kids and babies. Match the millimeter range of your longest foot — Australian sheepskin fits snug at first and molds to your foot with wear.

Women’s Shoes AU/US 4 – 15

Find the millimeter range that contains your longest foot measurement and read across. This is a guide only — individual fit can vary slightly between styles.

Between two rows? Size up — and remember EMU boots are designed to fit snugly at first, then stretch and mold to your feet.

Men’s Shoes AU/US 8 – 14

Men’s sizes share the upper part of the women’s millimeter scale — an AU/US 9 women’s equals an AU/US 8 men’s at the same foot length. Match your longest foot in millimeters.

Women’s and men’s scales overlap

The men’s chart starts where the women’s chart reaches AU/US 9 — same millimeter ranges, different printed sizes. If a style is made in both, match by foot length, not by gender label.

Slippers and boots

Sheepskin slippers should feel close-fitting at first. The wool flattens and the upper relaxes, so a firm start turns into a comfortable, custom-like fit.

Children’s Shoes AU/US 8 – 6

The children’s scale runs from AU/US 8 (toddler) through AU/US 1–6 (youth) and continues into the adult charts. Measure both feet — they can differ — and use the longer one.

Toddler & Baby 0 – 24 months

Baby sizes are chosen by age and foot length. Measure the foot in millimeters where possible — the age bands are only an indication.

Toddler & Baby Chart — by Age

Kids’ feet grow quickly — if a measurement sits between two rows, take the larger size and let the sheepskin do the adjusting.

Fit Notes for Sheepskin

How EMU Australia footwear is meant to fit, straight from the brand’s fitting guidance.

Snug now, perfect later

EMU boots and slippers should feel snug at first. The Australian sheepskin stretches and molds to your feet with wear for a custom, comfortable fit — do not buy a size up to get instant room.

The footbed settles

The sheepskin footbed compresses approximately 5 mm with wear, adding a little extra length and volume over the first wears.

Between sizes? Size up

If your measurement falls between two rows, EMU recommends going up to the next whole size. Half sizes are limited across the range.

Wear them barefoot

For the best fit and comfort, EMU footwear is designed to be worn barefoot — the natural sheepskin regulates temperature in both winter and summer.

Built on the AU scale

EMU prints Australian sizing, where AU and US are the same number. UK runs two sizes below AU/US for women and one below for men — always match by millimeters instead.

Water resistant, not waterproof

Double-face sheepskin styles resist light moisture, but soak-through and heat damage are not covered by sizing — treat and dry them properly to keep the fit true.

How to Measure

Heel against a wall

Place the back of your heel against a wall while standing on a piece of paper, weight on the foot.

Mark the longest toe

Mark the longest point of your toes on the paper — not always the big toe.

Measure both feet

Measure the length of both feet in millimeters, as they might vary slightly. Use the longer measurement.

Match the chart

Check your longest measurement against the millimeter ranges in the size chart above. Between two sizes? Take the larger one.

Sheepskin Care

Regular care

Brush the sheepskin lightly to lift the wool and remove dust. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild wool detergent; never machine wash or tumble dry.

Drying

If the boots get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat and sunlight — radiators and hair dryers will shrink and harden the suede.

Keeping the shape

Stuff boots lightly with paper while drying and store them in a cool, ventilated place. Avoid folding the shafts, which can crease the suede.

Refresh the wool

A sprinkle of sheepskin powder or a brief airing deodorizes naturally — the wool itself is breathable and odor resistant, so deep cleaning is rarely needed.

Conversions follow EMU Australia’s published sizing. This guide is an indication only — individual fit may vary between styles.
