Women’s Sizing & Fit
A beautiful pair of boots begins with the perfect fit. Whether you're slipping into your first pair of Petite Palomas or adding another heirloom to your collection, we're here to help you find your best size.
Explore our sizing guide and frequently asked questions for a little guidance on finding your fit, including tips for wider feet and calf measurements.
Our women's boots run a half size big, so we recommend ordering a half size down from your usual shoe size
Understanding Our Size Chart
Boot Size to Order: The size you'll select at checkout.
Fits Like: The shoe size that corresponds to the fit of the boot.
We recommend choosing a half size smaller than your everyday shoe size.
For example, if you typically wear a size 8, select a 7.5, which you'll see noted as “Fits Like 8” on our size chart.

A note for wider feet, we suggest staying true to your usual size rather than sizing down.

Fit guidance
What size should I order?
Most Petite Paloma women’s boots use half-size-down sizing. If you usually wear an 8, choose a 7.5 labeled “fits like 8.”
What does “Fits Like” mean?
“Boot Size” is the size you select when ordering. “Fits Like” is the usual shoe size it corresponds to.
What if I have wide feet?
For wider feet, we suggest staying true to your usual shoe size rather than sizing down.
Not sure which size is right for you? Our team is happy to help! Reach out to customersupport@petitepaloma.com with the style you have your eye on and your usual shoe size.
How do I check calf fit?
The calf circumference column shows the measurement around the boot shaft for each size. This measures room around your calf, not the width of your foot.
If you’re unsure about calf room, email us your calf measurement and the boot style and size you’re considering.
Trying on your boots
Check the fit before wearing your boots outside or having them stretched. Returns require boots to be unworn and in their original condition. Stretching affects the return terms, so read our Return Policy before making adjustments.
Need help choosing?
