SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker Size Guide
SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker is a luxury footwear brand known for elegant, statement-making shoes crafted with meticulous attention to detail. The collection features pointed-toe heels, pumps, and occasion wear designed for women who appreciate sophisticated style and premium construction. Each shoe is engineered for comfort without compromising on glamour, and the brand is celebrated for its refined European sizing and Italian craftsmanship. SJP shoes tend to run true to size, though width options and individual shoe silhouettes vary, making accurate measurement essential before purchase.
How to Measure
- Remove your shoes and stand on a flat, hard surface with your weight distributed evenly on both feet.
- Using a ruler or measuring tape, measure the distance from your heel to the tip of your longest toe.
- Record the measurement in centimetres; this is your foot length.
- Measure around the fullest part of your foot across the ball — this helps determine your width category (B for medium is standard for SJP).
- Measure in the afternoon or evening, when feet are slightly swollen, to ensure the most accurate fit.
- Refer to the size chart below to match your foot length in centimetres to the corresponding UK, US, and EU sizes.

Product-Specific Guidance
Heeled Pumps & Court Shoes
SJP pumps, including the bestselling Pet style, feature signature block heels and pointed-toe silhouettes. These shoes run true to EU size and are offered in width B (medium). The 50 mm heel height provides a comfortable lift suitable for both day and evening wear. When trying on heeled pumps from this collection, ensure your heel sits securely in the shoe without slipping, and that your toes have approximately half an inch of clearance from the toe cap. If you have wider feet, consider sizing up half a size.
Ankle Strap Heels
Styles such as the Quest feature adjustable ankle strap closures with buckle fasteners, which allow for a personalised fit. The wrapped heel and pointed-toe design create an elegant profile suitable for special occasions. The ankle strap should sit comfortably around the narrowest part of your ankle without pinching; adjust the buckle accordingly. These heels typically run true to size; measure both your foot length and ankle circumference for the best fit.
Materials & Construction
All SJP shoes are made in Italy using premium materials including leather linings, leather insoles embossed with the brand logo, and leather outsoles. Man-made uppers are crafted for durability and sheen. Shoes feature leather insoles that mould to your foot over time, so a slightly snug initial fit is normal and will soften with wear.
Sizing Tips
- SJP shoes run true to size in EU and US measurements; however, always verify the specific style, as heel height and toe shape can affect fit perception.
- The brand standardly offers width B (medium); if you have narrower feet, consider insoles or heel grips, or look for styles with ankle straps for added security.
- Leather linings and insoles require a short break-in period. Wear your new SJP shoes indoors for 1–2 hours before taking them out, to allow the leather to flex and conform to your foot shape.
- Pointed-toe silhouettes naturally run narrower through the toe box; if you have a wider forefoot, try a half-size up or select styles with a more rounded toe shape.
- When ordering online from international retailers, check return policies carefully, as SJP shoes may be final sale on discount or clearance items.
- Heel height affects how a shoe fits; SJP heels range from 50 mm (block pumps) to 75 mm (stiletto styles). Higher heels may feel tighter across the ball of the foot, so size accordingly if you are sensitive to heel height.
- Measure your feet in the late afternoon or evening, when natural swelling occurs, to avoid ordering a size that becomes too tight later in the day.
- If purchasing a style not listed in product descriptions, contact customer service to confirm whether it is available in half-sizes, as some designs are offered in full sizes only.
