Patricia Cossettin Created Mangará to Make Signature Design Accessible for All
Great shoes should feel effortless. Because every Mangará pair is handmade in Brazil on a French last, our shoes have a particular, consistent fit — and once you know it, choosing your size is easy. Here's everything you need to get it right the first time.
How our shoes run: the French last
Our shoes are shaped on a French last, which gives an elegant, slightly slim fit through the foot. If your feet are narrow to average, take your usual EU size. If your feet are on the wider side, read the wide-feet notes below before choosing.
Find your size (EU size chart)
The most reliable way to size is by foot length, not by the size you usually buy — brands vary.
How to measure:
- Stand on a sheet of paper with your heel against a wall (measure at the end of the day, when feet are slightly larger).
- Mark the tip of your longest toe.
- Measure heel-to-toe in centimetres. Measure both feet and use the larger.
- Match your longest measurement to the chart below.
| EU size | Foot length (cm) |
|---|---|
| 36 | 23.0 |
| 37 | 23.7 |
| 38 | 24.3 |
| 39 | 25.0 |
| 40 | 25.7 |
| 41 | 26.3 |
| 42 | 27.0 |
These are guide measurements. If you're between sizes, size up or contact us — we're happy to help you choose. We also offer half sizes (36.5–41.5) on many styles.
Wide feet? Narrow feet? Here's what to choose
- Wider feet: because of the slim French last, consider sizing up by half a size, and favour adjustable styles — ankle straps, buckles and toe-ring slides give the most room. Open styles (slides, mules, strappy sandals) suit wider feet better than closed courts.
- Narrow feet: take your true size; adjustable straps let you tighten for a secure fit.
- In-between: size up to the nearest half size — leather gives a little as it softens, but never shrinks.
Leather that moulds to you
Our calf leather is supple from the first wear and continues to soften, gently shaping to your foot over the first few outings. A snug (never tight) fit at the start is normal — it's the leather getting to know you.

Fit FAQ
Do Mangará shoes run true to size?
They run slightly slim because they're made on a French last. Narrow-to-average feet: take your usual EU size. Wider feet: size up half a size and choose adjustable styles.
Are these shoes good for wide feet?
Yes, with the right choice. Pick adjustable, open styles (ankle straps, buckles, slides, toe-ring sandals) and consider a half size up. Closed courts are the slimmest fit.
Should I size up or down?
When in doubt, size up to the nearest half size. Leather softens and gives slightly with wear; it won't shrink to fit.
Are the heels comfortable to walk in?
Most of our heels are stable block heels (roughly 4–9 cm) designed for real, all-day wear rather than standing still.
Can I return them if the fit is wrong?
Absolutely — free 30-day returns across Europe.
