When it comes to designer shoes, inconsistency in sizing is a common issue, and Alexander McQueen shoes are no exception.
You might find that one pair fits perfectly while another feels too snug or too loose, even if they are the same size.
In this article, I’ll guide you through the Alexander McQueen size charts for both men and women, discuss how different McQueen shoe models fit, and explain the importance of shoe width.

Now, let’s discuss how some popular Alexander McQueen shoes fit…
How Alexander McQueen Shoes Fit
Alexander Mcqueen Oversized Sneakers
First off, the Alexander McQueen Oversized sneakers are unisex, which makes them suitable for both men and women.
When it comes to sizing, the general advice is to go half a size down or even a full size down if you prefer a snug fit.
However, I recommend sticking to your true size or going down only half a size maximum because these shoes will stretch and mold to your feet over time.
If they feel tight or uncomfortable initially, give them a chance to wear in. They will become quite comfortable after a bit of use. That said, some people have found that sizing up works better for them, so it’s best to try them on in-store if possible.
Keep in mind that these Oversized sneakers are chunky and can look great on most people, but if you have larger feet and are not particularly tall, they might appear overly bulky. If you’re a size 9 or 10, they’ll likely look good, but larger sizes can seem a bit disproportionate.
To give you a better idea of the sizing, here’s how the Alexander McQueen Oversized compares to other popular sneakers:
- Alexander McQueen Oversized: US9
- Yeezy 350: US10.5
- Nike Air Max: US10
- Nike Vapormax: US10.5
- Stan Smith: US9.5
- Balenciaga Triple S: US42 (US9)
Lastly, because these sneakers are made of leather, they can crease easily. It’s important to get the right size to avoid excessive room in the shoe, which can lead to premature creasing. Make sure to try them on before purchasing to ensure the best fit.
Alexander McQueen Tread Slick Boots
When it comes to the Alexander McQueen Tread Slick Boots, they generally run true to size for those with narrow and regular feet, but they can still feel a bit clunky. These boots tend to run a bit big, so you might need to size down.
However, even with sizing down, they can still feel a little long and leave some room in the toe area, which can add to the clunkiness.
One thing to note is that the area near the arch of your foot is particularly tight. If you size down too much, it might be really hard to get your foot into the boot due to the narrow opening.
On the other hand, if you size up, the boots might be too long. Therefore, make sure to try these on in-store if you can.
For those with wide feet, be cautious. You might need to go up one size, but be aware that the tightness near the arch might still pose a challenge.
Shoe Widths Explained
Did you know that most Americans are walking around in shoes that don’t fit properly? If you haven’t found your perfect fit yet, you’re not alone.
A common mistake people make is ordering the next size up when their shoes feel too tight in width. What you really need is a wider width, not a longer shoe.
Width vs. Length
For instance, when you compare a size 10 shoe with a size 11, the difference is in the length.
However, if you compare a size 10 shoe with a wider width, the length stays the same while the width increases.
Shoe widths come in Narrow, Medium, Wide, Extra Wide, and sometimes even wider. There’s no universal width system used by all shoe brands, but typically, there’s a 1/8″ difference between each width size.
It’s also important to note that width sizing differs between men’s and women’s shoes, so make sure you’re looking at the correct sizing chart.
Additionally, you may need to adjust your shoe width if you develop a foot condition. Conditions like bunions or hammertoes can change the shape of your foot, requiring a different width for a comfortable fit.
