Buying work shoes online can be convenient and affordable, but choosing the right size in most cases can turn into a real challenge.


In this article, we will discuss how to choose the right size of U-Power shoes and compare sizes with other popular brands to help you with online shopping and avoid mistakes.


Let's see how to make sure your online work shoes are the perfect size for you!










When buying work shoes online, it is essential to know your measurements.


Whatever your work environment and the shoe you are looking for always start with an accurate measurement of the sole of your foot.


Using a dressmaker's tape measure, measure the length of the foot from the heel to the tip of the longest toe. Once you have this measurement, compare it with the online size chart to determine the right size.


The fit of the shoe then depends on several factors, such as the upper and last.


Remember that each brand has its own characteristics that affect the perception of comfort while wearing the shoe.


Measuring your foot accurately is the essential starting point for a safe choice of your work shoes during your online purchase.









The fit of footwear can vary greatly: for example, a U-Power work shoes size might be slightly different from a Nike or Adidas size.


U-Power work shoes usually fit smaller than sneakers from common brands. The goal is to always ensure maximum comfort!


Take, for example, U-Power's style 36, which corresponds to a style 37 from Nike and a style 37 1/3 from Adidas. This shows us how to always take different sizes into account when switching between brands.


Each brand and type of safety shoe has a different size: use the table to find the right size of u-power shoes, comparing it to your sneakers.








Size selection is always a critical point because different brands may have small differences in fit, as well as a slight variation in size.


When switching from one brand to another, therefore, it is important to take into account differences in fit.


For example, a style 41 from Diadora will correspond to a style 42 from U-Power, depending on foot width and personal preference.


The best solution is to refer to the size chart of both brands and adjust through the measurement of the sole of the foot.


When it comes to choosing the perfect size, keep in mind that U-Power work shoes also offer innovative technologies designed to improve workplace performance.



  • INFINERGY® SYSTEM: This revolutionary technology transforms traditional cushioning into dynamic cushioning, providing more than 55 percent energy return with each step. It is ideal for those who must work on their knees or squat, move frequently on foot over short and long distances, or maintain static postures for long periods.


  • RED CARPET: an innovative material that stimulates and reactivates blood circulation, providing relief for the joints, loins and neck. Comfort, high performance and shock distribution are guaranteed, making shoes with this technology ideal for standing work.


  • RED UP: High Rebound technology offers 40 percent energy recovery across the entire surface of the foot, both when standing and pushing. It is ideal for those who need maximum support and comfort during long hours of work.




When choosing your U-Power shoe size, consider not only your foot size, but also the specific technologies that best suit your work needs.








U-Power footwear is available online in a variety of sizes so that everyone can find the perfect fit. From the most common ones like 38 or 39, to some styles that also have larger sizes like 48 and 49-there is a comfortable number to meet all needs.


You must have realized by now that buying work shoes online can be a positive experience, but it is important to consider the fit and the differences between brands.
