astro, I thought to calculate what size a woman wears in men’s shoes, she should add two (or is it 1.5) to the men’s size. Thus, a size seven in men’s would fit a size nine (or 8.5) in womens.

I have a few pair of men’s sneakers and I’ve always purchased a size seven. I wear an 8.5 - 9 in women’s shoes.

If you did measurements to arrive at your women’s size, by all means disregard this post.
