Before Choosing Your Size
Very important: Dolfie Heritage models feature an authentic hand made moccasin construction, which directly affects sizing.
Unlike other Dolfie models, such as the MC5, do not have a straight cup sole. Their shape is rounded, providing a bit more space, a few extra millimeters at the front.
👉 For this reason, if you are on the border between two sizes, we recommend choosing the lower size, especially if you have a normal or narrow foot.
Also, keep in mind that they are made from high quality natural leather, which slightly stretches with wear and adapts comfortably to your foot over time.
Important: the Duke model deserves a special mention. It is a loafer with authentic moccasin construction, without laces or adjustable elements. Since this type of shoe must feel well-fitted from the start, we recommend choosing one size smaller than usual, allowing the leather to naturally adapt to your foot over time.
How to Interpret the Size Guide
In our table, you will find:
Insole length (cm)
Insole width (cm), indicated in the boxes on the left
These measurements correspond to the inside of the shoe, not the total exterior length.
How to Choose Your Ideal Size
1. Measure your foot accurately
To measure your foot length correctly, place your heel against a wall and use a book or magazine to gently press against your longest toe. Mark that point and measure the distance: it is the simplest and most precise way to get the true length of your foot.
2. Compare with shoes that already fit you well
If you have shoes that are comfortable (preferably barefoot), measure their inside insoles and compare them with our measurements. This is one of the most reliable ways to find your perfect Dolfie size. Also, check the type of insole: Flat (like Dolfie’s) → you can use the full measurement. If they are Concave (with a small raised edge at the heel) → subtract approximately 0.4–0.5 cm from the total measurement for a correct comparison.
3. Choose your preferred fit: Snug, Recommended or Loose
As a general guideline, we recommend leaving a maximum of 1 cm difference between your foot length and the insole length, depending on your preferences. More than that may feel too loose, especially in a moccasin.
Note: The insole of Dolfie Heritage models is 3 mm thick.
Foot Width
If you have very narrow feet: If your measurement falls in the middle or near the light green zone, choose one size smaller. However, if your measurement is closer to the dark zone, stick with that size.
If you have very wide or full feet: If your measurement is in the dark green zone or near it, choose one size larger, except for the Duke model.
