The Complete Air Jordan Fit & Size Guide

Updated October 2026 — the US men's 14.5, 15.5, 16.5 and 17.5 rows added to the size chart from Nike's published men's chart, and the note that the chart runs in whole sizes only above a US men's 14 removed.

The short answer: Air Jordans fit true to size. Buy your usual Nike size. If you are between sizes, or your feet are wide, take the half size up. Everything below is the detail — the full conversion chart, men's to women's, UK, Youth and Grade School, and what is actually buyable right now.

PUSHAS carries Air Jordans in adult and Grade School sizing, from best-sellers like the Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG 'Year of the Dragon' (2024) across the full Air Jordan collection — so once this guide has settled your size, you can see exactly what is live in it further down the page.

Whether you are shopping Air Jordan 1s, Air Jordan 3s or Air Jordan 4s, this is the guide.

Air Jordan Size Chart

Measure your foot, find the closest figure in the Foot Length (cm) column, and read across for your US, women's, Youth, UK and EU equivalents. Measure late in the day, standing, and use the larger foot.

How Do Jordans Fit? Are Jordans True To Size?

Air Jordans fit true to size. Buy the same size you wear in other Nike sneakers — the Air Jordan 1, the 4, the 5 and the 11 all work off the same Nike last chart, so your number does not need adjusting between them.

Two caveats worth knowing. If you sit between sizes, take the half size up rather than down; there is very little give in a leather Jordan upper across the width. And if your feet are wide, the half size up is the more comfortable call, particularly in the higher cuts.

Air Jordan Men's To Women's Size Conversion

This is the single thing people get wrong most often, so here it is in both directions.

Nike men's and women's sizing is exactly 1.5 sizes apart. A US men's 7 is labelled a US women's 8.5. That pairing is printed on the box, and PUSHAS listings show both, in the form “US M 9 / W 10.5”, wherever the brand publishes a women's equivalent for that size — so you rarely have to convert anything yourself. Grade School listings are the exception: they are labelled in Youth sizes only.

• You normally buy women's, and the pair is listed in men's: subtract 1.5 from your women's size. A women's 9.5 buys a men's 8.
• You normally buy men's, and the pair is listed in women's: add 1.5 to your men's size. A men's 8 buys a women's 9.5.

So if you wear a men's 8 and you want a colourway released only in women's sizing, you are looking for a women's 9.5. Going the other way, if you wear a women's 7, your men's size is a 5.5.

Do Air Jordan 1 Lows, Mids and Highs Fit The Same?

Yes, in length. The Low, Mid and High all run true to size, so if you have settled on a size in Jordan 1 Lows, that same size carries across to Mids and Highs.

What changes is volume rather than length. The High and Mid have more collar and more panelling around the ankle and instep, so they feel more contained on foot than a Low in the same size. If you have a high instep and the High feels tight, the half size up is the fix — not a different size in the Low.

Do Jordan 4s Fit The Same As Jordan 1s?

For sizing purposes, yes. Whether you are in Jordan 4s, Jordan 1s, 5s or 6s, the chart above is the one to read, and your usual Nike size is the one to buy.

Where silhouettes differ is in shape rather than length — upper materials, collar height and how much room sits over the instep all change how a pair feels without changing which size you need. If a particular pair feels snug for you across the width, the half size up is the adjustment, and it is the same adjustment in every model.

Youth And Grade School (GS) Sizing — And Where It Stops

If your feet are at the smaller end of the adult range, Grade School pairs are worth checking: it is the same shoe on the same last, and GS listings often open up a colourway that is harder to find in adult sizing.

Nike's Big Kids range runs 3.5Y to 7Y, and 7Y is the largest Youth size there is. There is no 8Y, no 9Y and no 10Y — above 7Y, Nike moves to men's sizing, and 7Y and a men's 7 are the same length. The Grade School listings in the stock table below sit inside exactly the range Nike publishes.

To convert:

• Youth to men's: the number is the same. A 7Y is a men's 7.
• Women's to Youth: subtract 1.5. A women's 6 is a 4.5Y; a women's 8.5 is a 7Y, the largest Youth size available.

If your women's size is above 8.5, Grade School will not go big enough and men's sizing is where to look.

Jordan Sizing vs Nike Sizing

They are the same. Jordan is a Nike brand and both use the same published footwear chart, so the size you wear in Nike is the size you wear in Jordan and vice versa. There are individual pairs that feel narrower or roomier than average, but the number does not change.

Air Jordans In Your Size, In Stock Right Now

Knowing your size only helps if the pair is buyable in it. These are Air Jordan pairs live at PUSHAS, with the sizes currently on the board — Grade School included, so you can see the Youth range in practice.

The full range sits in the Air Jordan collection. For a model-specific breakdown, see the complete Jordan 1 size guide or the complete Jordan 4 size guide. For the rest of the Nike range, the complete Nike size guide covers every silhouette, and the Air Force 1 size guide covers the one Nike model that does not run true to size; if you are cross-shopping, our comparison of the Dunk against the Air Jordan 1 Low covers how those two differ on foot.

Air Jordan sizing: frequently asked questions

Do Air Jordans run true to size?

Yes. Air Jordans run true to size, so buy your usual Nike size. If you sit between sizes or have wide feet, take the half size up rather than down.

Should I size up or down in Air Jordan 1s?

Neither for most people — go true to size. Size up half a size only if you are between sizes, have wide feet, or have a high instep and are buying a Mid or High.

What is a men's 8 in women's Air Jordan sizing?

A US women's 9.5. Nike men's and women's sizing is exactly 1.5 sizes apart, and PUSHAS listings show both numbers wherever the brand publishes a women's equivalent.

What is a women's 7 in men's Air Jordan sizing?

A US men's 5.5. Subtract 1.5 from your women's size to get the men's equivalent.

What is a US men's 9 in UK sizing for Air Jordans?

A UK 8. Nike's UK number sits half a size below the US men's number up to a US men's 6.5, then a full size below it from a US men's 7 — which is why UK 6 covers both a US men's 6.5 and a US men's 7 on the chart above.

How many centimetres is a US men's 9 in Air Jordans?

A foot length of 26.2 cm. The number printed on the box for that size is 27, because Nike's CM/JP box label and actual foot length are two different figures. Measure your foot and size from the Foot Length (cm) column.

What is the biggest Youth or GS size in Air Jordans?

7Y. Nike's Big Kids footwear range runs from 3.5Y to 7Y and stops there, so there is no 8Y or larger. A 7Y is the same length as a US men's 7, and above that you buy men's sizing.

What is a women's 6 in Youth Air Jordan sizing?

A 4.5Y. Subtract 1.5 from your women's size to get the Youth equivalent. A women's 8.5 is a 7Y, the largest Youth size made.

Do Jordan 1 Highs fit the same as Jordan 1 Lows?

In length, yes — both run true to size. The High has more collar and panelling, so it feels more contained around the ankle and instep than a Low in the same size, without needing a different number.

Is Jordan sizing the same as Nike sizing?

Yes. Jordan is a Nike brand and both use the same published footwear chart, so your Nike size is your Jordan size.

Where can I buy authentic Air Jordans?

Air Jordans are live at PUSHAS in adult and Grade School sizing, every pair authenticated by hand, with global shipping from Sydney and Los Angeles.

Conclusion

Air Jordan sizing is simpler than it is usually made to sound: true to size, the same number as your Nike size, half a size up if you are between sizes or wide-footed. Men's to women's is 1.5 either way, women's to Youth is 1.5 down, and Youth stops at 7Y.

Every pair on PUSHAS is authenticated by hand and ships worldwide from Sydney and Los Angeles.
