- Choose whether your input is circumference or diameter.
- Enter the measurement in centimeters.
- Add any fit allowance if you want a slightly looser result.
- Click Calculate to see the millimeter value and EU size.
Formula
Circumference in mm = centimeters x 10
Diameter in mm = circumference in mm / pi
Worked Examples
Example 1: 5.6 cm converts to 56.0 mm and about EU 56.
Example 2: A 1.8 cm diameter becomes about 56.5 mm of circumference before allowance.
Example 3: Adding 1 mm of allowance turns a tight measurement into a more comfortable fit.
