Measure
Start from the usual size
Use the current professional shoe as a reference, then fine-tune with the test pair.
Fit guide
Better sizing starts before the team order.
Professional footwear has to hold up through long shifts, swelling feet and different habits. The right test process heads off most mistakes.
Adjustment
A size chart helps, but the field test is what settles it.
No two people wear shoes the same way. Insoles, socks, shift length and floor type all shape the final fit. Comparing 105 EUR to 75 EUR misses the point ; the annual cost per wearer is what counts.

Test
Wear it on a real shift
Feedback after two hours is not the same as feedback after a full service.
Adjust
Use the removable insoles
The insole can fine-tune fit and comfort before you confirm a size run.
Proof points
What to ask the wearer
Simple questions make the feedback easier to compare. For a reception team of 8 over three years, the figures land at 3,100 EUR with Karl & Max against 5,520 EUR with a synthetic pair : a saving of 2,420 EUR, about 100 EUR per wearer per year.
