Are hoff trainers true to size?

The 60-second answer

For most people, yes—HOFF trainers fit true to size. Order the EU size you usually wear in Nike, adidas or New Balance and you should be golden.

 

Why HOFF sizing can feel different

  • European foundation. HOFF is a Spanish brand, so every pair is built on EU whole sizes first. Conversions to UK or US can look a little quirky because there’s more “space” between Anglo-sizes than Euro-sizes.

  • Memory-foam insole. The cushy insole moulds to your foot after a couple of wears; straight out of the box the shoe can feel snug at the instep.

  • Unisex lasts. Men’s and women’s lines share the same last, but HOFF’s own UK conversion table offsets women’s sizes a full size higher than men’s. That’s why some shoppers see a mismatch on the size tag.

2. Quick-reference sizing tips

Your usual EU size Order this in HOFF
EU 36-40 Same size (City, Skyline, Tribe)
EU 41-46 Same size for most styles; size down if you float between sizes in Skyline or Tribe

 

3. Style-by-style fit notes

Collection Fit feel Sizing call
City Neutral/standard True to size
Tribe Slightly roomier in the toe box Size down if between sizes
Skyline Marginally wider mid-foot Size down if between sizes
State Athletic, memory-foam footbed True to size, allow break-in

 

4. Women’s vs. Men’s: decoding the label

HOFF converts EU → UK differently for women and men (a women’s UK 9 and a men’s UK 8 are the same EU 42). If you shop men’s styles for extra width, drop one UK size from your normal women’s UK.

5. How to lock in the perfect fit

  1. Measure your favourite insole. Pop it out, measure heel-to-toe in mm and cross-check with HOFF’s chart.

  2. Think about socks. Thick athletic socks? Stay true to size. Invisible liners? You may prefer the tighter feel of the smaller size if you’re in-between.

  3. Give them a day. The memory-foam footbed softens fast; many wearers say the fit “levels up” after two outings.

  4. Still unsure? We offer free UK returns and exchanges—order two sizes, keep the winner.

6. Final word

HOFF keeps its sizing simple: stick to your regular EU size and you’ll almost certainly land the Goldilocks fit. Use the tips above, and you’ll be exploring the city streets (or showing off that colour-blocked limited edition) in total comfort.
