Measure at room temperature; fingers change size with heat and time of day.

What this page cannot tell you

Jewellers' sizing tools differ slightly, and US sizes were never set by a precise national standard. India, Japan and China use their own non-linear scales, which are not converted here. A jeweller's sizer on the actual finger is the most reliable measure.

Relations from Wikipedia: Ring size: ISO size = inner circumference in mm; US circumference = 2.55 × size + 36.5 mm; UK (BS 6820:1987) 1.25 mm per letter with C = 40 mm; Swiss = circumference − 40; German = diameter. Retrieved 2026-10-24.

How to find and convert a ring size

  1. Choose what you know. A US or UK size, ISO circumference, Swiss size, or a ring's inner diameter.
  2. Enter it. US quarter sizes and UK half sizes are fine.
  3. Read every system. And the circumference and diameter in mm.
  4. Check the chart. US sizes 3 to 13 with UK letters and measurements.

How the ring sizes are converted

The page works from the ring's inner circumference. ISO 8653 sizes are the inner circumference in mm. US, Canada and Mexico sizes follow circumference = 2.55 × size + 36.5 mm. UK, Ireland and Australia use letters: since BS 6820:1987 each letter is 1.25 mm of circumference, with C = 40 mm. Italian, Spanish and Swiss sizes are circumference − 40; German and Dutch sizes are the inner diameter in mm. These relations are given in the Wikipedia article on ring size.

Limits: sizing tools differ slightly between jewellers. India, Japan and China use non-linear scales not converted here. Fingers change size with temperature and time of day; a jeweller's sizer is the most reliable measure.
