Mondopoint to Ski Binding Size Conversion:
From: | To: |
Mondopoint is the international standard for measuring shoe sizes, based on foot length in centimeters. It's commonly used for ski boots and binding sizing.
The calculator uses standard conversion formulas:
US Size: (Mondopoint × 3 - 22) ÷ 2
EU Size: Mondopoint × 1.5 - 0.5
Note: These are approximate conversions. Actual binding sizes may vary by manufacturer.
Details: Proper binding size is crucial for ski performance and safety. Incorrect sizing can lead to poor control or premature release.
Tips: Measure your foot length in centimeters from heel to toe while standing. Input this value to get corresponding US or EU ski binding sizes.
Q1: Why use mondopoint instead of shoe size?
A: Mondopoint is more accurate as it's based on actual foot measurement, while shoe sizes vary by brand and country.
Q2: How should I measure my foot?
A: Stand barefoot on paper, mark longest toe and back of heel, then measure distance in cm while wearing ski socks.
Q3: What if my size is between two binding sizes?
A: Generally round up for performance skiers who prefer tighter fit, or down for comfort-focused skiers.
Q4: Do all brands use the same sizing?
A: No, there can be slight variations. Always check manufacturer's specific size chart when available.
Q5: Does boot flex affect binding size?
A: No, binding size is based solely on boot sole length, which correlates with mondopoint.
