COS

It depends on the model. COS fit varies between styles, so a single verdict for the whole brand would be misleading, and we only publish a fit verdict where we have measured one. The dependable way to answer it for the pair you are buying is to work from a shoe you already own and know fits: enter it above and we will tell you which COS size matches it.

Start from a shoe you already own that fits, rather than from your usual number. Enter it above and we will convert through foot length to the matching COS size, which is the part that carries across brands. The EU to US offset is not the same for every brand, so a rule of thumb learned elsewhere will not hold here.

Not directly, because a size label means whatever the brand decides it means. A Nike 42 and an Adidas 42 are cut for different foot lengths, and so is a COS 42. Foot length is the common unit, which is why our comparison works from the measurements behind each brands chart rather than from the number printed on the box.

COS is a Swedish fashion brand founded in 2007, known for minimalist Scandinavian design and contemporary style. The footwear collection includes trainers, boots, and refined casual shoes with clean aesthetics.

COS shoes typically fit true to size, but their trainers have a narrow shape. The brand uses European sizing, with sizes typically ranging from 35 to 42 for women and 39 to 46 for men.

For COS footwear, order your normal EU size. If you have wider feet or are between sizes, consider sizing up for comfort. Sock thickness also matters - finely woven cotton allows your normal size, while thicker socks may need more room.
