Who This Converter Is For

Shoppers, jewelers, designers, gift-givers, and anyone needing precise sizing for personal or professional use.

Major Ring Size Systems Supported

  • US/Canada (numeric sizes like 5, 6.5, 7, etc.)
  • UK/Australia (alphabetic sizes like J, K, L½, M)
  • Europe (EU sizes, based on inner circumference in mm)
  • Japan (numeric scale)
  • Switzerland
  • ISO Standard (inner circumference in millimeters)

Common Conversion Factors

Most conversion systems revolve around two measurements:

  • Inner circumference (mm): measured around the inside of the ring.
  • Inner diameter (mm): measured straight across the inside of the ring.

Formula:
Inner Circumference = Diameter × π

How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home

  1. Wrap a thin strip of paper or string around the base of your finger.
  2. Mark where the ends meet.
  3. Lay it flat and measure the length in millimeters—this is the inner circumference.
  4. Use the chart or converter to find the corresponding ring size.

Ring Size Chart (Sample Values)

US/CA UK/AU EU (mm) Diameter (mm) Japan
5 49.3 15.7 9
6 L 51.9 16.5 12
7 N 54.4 17.3 14
8 P 56.9 18.2 16
9 R 59.5 19.0 18

Step-by-Step Conversion Example

Problem: Convert a US size 7 to UK and EU equivalents.
Step 1: US 7 corresponds to inner circumference ≈ 54.4 mm.
Step 2: In the UK system, US 7 ≈ size N.
Step 3: In the EU system, 54.4 mm circumference ≈ size 54.
Answer: US 7 = UK N = EU 54.

How the Converter Works (User Flow)

  1. Select your known size (e.g., US size 6.5).
  2. Choose the original system (US, UK, EU, Japan, etc.).
  3. Select the target sizing system(s) for conversion.
  4. Click “Convert” — the tool maps your size to the matching circumference/diameter and outputs all equivalents.
  5. Optional: enables half-sizes, quarter-sizes, and exact millimeter measurements.

Input Notes & Validation

  • Supports full, half, and quarter sizes (e.g., US 7.25).
  • Metric inputs must be in millimeters, not centimeters.
  • Sizes vary slightly by jeweler—actual fit may differ by up to 0.2 mm.
  • Finger size changes with temperature, humidity, and time of day.

Practical Tips for Accurate Sizing

  • Measure your finger at the end of the day when it’s largest.
  • Avoid measuring when your hands are cold (fingers shrink).
  • Measure the knuckle too—your ring must slide past it comfortably.
  • Wide bands fit tighter; consider sizing up for rings thicker than 6 mm.
  • If between sizes, choose the slightly larger one for comfort.

Limitations & Considerations

  • International standards vary slightly; conversions are approximate.
  • Printed charts must be printed at 100% scale for accurate measurement.
  • Always confirm size by trying a physical ring sizer for expensive jewelry.
