How Converse and Adidas actually compare
If your Converse size is a men's US 9, the Adidas chart directs you to a 10. 67 inches) foot at a men's 9, while Adidas assigns the same foot length to a men's US 10 (EU 44). Anyone who sized down for Chucks will need to size back up when switching to Adidas. In women's sizing, both charts align, so a Converse women's 8 remains an Adidas 8 with no adjustment required.
An Adidas quirk to anticipate: the EU column progresses in thirds, resulting in labels like EU 44 2/3, which may appear unusual compared to Converse's half steps. The US columns and the centimeter measurements offer a straightforward comparison. Measure your foot length once, and both charts will provide you with a direct answer.
