  3. Copy the result, or copy a link that keeps the same values to share it.

How it is calculated

The circumference in mm is the EU size. Diameter = circumference ÷ π, US = (C ÷ (π × 25.4) − 0.458) ÷ 0.032.

Example

Inputs: String length around finger = 54, Unit = millimeters. Result: US size: 6.75; UK size: N; EU size (ISO): 54.

Limits and caveats

  • String can stretch or wrap at an angle, so measure twice, ideally late in the day when fingers are larger.
  • Make sure the ring will pass over the knuckle; you may need a size up.
