How Do You Know Your Sock Size

In the US, a numerical sock size is essentially how long your foot is in inches. This means that a sock size labeled 9-11 is often not a shoe size, but rather how long your foot is in inches. For example, a women’s size 7 shoe is about 9 5/16 inches, so it would fit that size sock no problem.
