How to choose the size?
The size of the iron-plate is related to the length and width of the shoe. The number of the iron-heels is a rather arbitrary unit, you do not need to take it very seriously. On the site fjm44.com in the section "collector's guide" there are examples of original German shoes.
Why did we make no correspondence table? Because the iron-heels were different, and there are exceptions! When tailoring shoes to order nowadays, a shoe maker usually designs the sole keeping in mind sizes of the iron parts.
| Номер | Габариты, мм | Расстояние между крайними отверстиями, мм |
| 1 | 45×17 | 31 |
| 2 | 49×19 | 36 |
| 3 | 53×21 | 36 |
| 4 | 56×22 | 38 |
| 5 | 60×21 | 45 |
| 6 | 65×23 | 47 |
The size you need to choose before buying. If any size cannot be selected, then it is not on sale (sold out).
