Five short questions. We'll tell you which Australian size to take.
What size shoe do you normally wear?
Australian sizing. If you only know your foot length, use the button below.
Stand on a sheet of paper with your heel against a wall. Mark the tip of your longest toe, then measure from the wall to the mark in centimetres. Do this late in the day, when your feet are at their largest, and measure both feet — take the longer one.
Please enter a length between 18 and 32 cm.
How would you describe the width of your feet?
Width is the most common reason a shoe goes back.
Does any of this apply to your feet?
Pick the one that affects your fit the most.
What will you usually wear inside them?
Orthotics and thicker socks take up real space.
When a shoe doesn't work, what's usually wrong?
This tells us which way to lean.

It told me to size up and it was right. Room across the toes for once.
DeborahOrdered AU 7
First pair was snug so I emailed. The next size arrived before I'd posted the first back.
MargaretOrdered AU 8
Measured my foot like they said, ordered what it told me, fit straight out of the box.
RobynOrdered AU 6
Needed a wider fit. No cost to me, no forms, arrived four days later.
SusanOrdered AU 7.5
Wrote in on a Sunday expecting nothing. Proper answer from a real person Monday morning.
LynetteOrdered AU 5
Between sizes and they told me honestly which to take. It fit.
DeniseOrdered AU 6.5
The exchange was easier than the original order. They emailed the label, that was it.
JenniferOrdered AU 8

True to size and the fabric has weight to it. First thing I've ordered online that I didn't send back.
I'm not the easiest to fit and this sits the way it should. Ordered a second one the same week.
Washed it twice already, no shrinking, no fading. My daughter asked where I got it.
Ordered Monday, had it Thursday. The color is exactly like the photos.
Wore it to lunch and then straight to the garden center. That's my highest compliment.
I'm between sizes and went with the larger. Room to move without looking baggy.
Sharp enough to turn heads. Comfortable enough to wear all day. That's not a compromise — that's the point.
Finding a flat that looks this good and feels this good used to mean choosing one or the other. The Opium changes that. Genuine leather, a structured square toe, and bold hardware detailing that makes them look like they cost three times what you paid — paired with a cushioned footbed and flexible sole that make you forget you're on your feet.
Wear them at 9am. Still wearing them at 9pm. That's the Opium promise.

What makes the Opium worth it:
Genuine leather upper. Not faux, not synthetic. Real leather that shapes to your foot over time, gets more beautiful with wear, and tells the difference between a shoe built to last and one built to photograph well.
The structured square toe. Modern, deliberate, and effortlessly chic. The silhouette that fashion has been reaching back to because it simply works — elongating the leg, grounding the outfit, making everything you wear with it look more considered.
Bold hardware detail. That one piece of hardware that does more work than most accessories. It makes the Opium unmistakably intentional — the shoe in the room that people notice and ask about.
Cushioned footbed + flexible sole. Because elegance shouldn't cost you your comfort. The Opium moves with you — not against you — from morning errands to evening plans without a single thought about your feet.
