I had already googled it but as i´m not sure if it is european sizing they use in turkey it´s not a great help . I think the shoe size would be a 8 in england but not sure about the clothes size do you think this would convert to a sm ? Also any idea´s on rest of my post .

 

 

Thanks all for your help ..

I know that the turkish choes and clothes have eropean sizes; I bought something and they were ok; you can use the european sizes

There´s another problem, two items of clothing of the same size are not necessarily the same. Clothes made in China tend to be smaller compared to other clothes of the same size

And clothes in some Turkish shops are marked randomly I have a two shirts from the same shop, on marked small, the other marker large... I knew a guy who thought I had "around shoe size 42" in Turkey, but all the shoes he fitted in Holland were size 41.
