How this Brooks → Hoka chart actually maps

Brooks US 10 is 27.1 cm and the nearest Hoka US is also 10 (EU 44). The printed ladder is 1:1 in US labels from US 6 (23.5 cm) through US 13 (29.7 cm). The wear-box “Brooks 10 ≈ Hoka 10.0” is that centimeter match — it does not say Ghost 16 and Clifton 9 share a last. Hoka model pages on this site list 27.0 cm at US 10; here the source column is Brooks, so US 10 stays 27.1 and still lands on Hoka 10.

Ghost 16 is TTS as a high-volume daily trainer — use Brooks B/D/2E instead of oversizing length. Glycerin 21 matches Ghost-style TTS length with a plush ride. Hoka splits the other way by stack: Bondi 8 is the roomier daily; Clifton 9 is TTS with a slightly less roomy forefoot; Speedgoat 5 is a trail last. A chart-matched Ghost 10 in 2E can still feel loose in Brooks and tight in a D-width Clifton.

Convert from the Brooks size that fits in length with the correct width letter. Do not copy a Ghost 2E habit onto Clifton as extra length, and do not copy a Hoka Wide SKU back onto Ghost as a half-up. Half a size on this table is 26.7 → 27.1 → 27.5 cm. Spend it on Hoka volume versus Brooks width, not on stacking two brand habits.

Model fit matters

FAQ

How do I convert Brooks shoe size to Hoka?
Match by foot length in centimeters on each brand’s chart. Example: Brooks US 10 ≈ Hoka US 10.0 (about 27.1 cm). Then adjust for the specific model’s fit (runs big/small/narrow).
Is a Brooks US 10 the same as a Hoka US 10?
Not always. Labels can map to slightly different foot lengths. Use the cm column, then check model guides on both brands.
Which direction should I read first?
Start from the brand you already wear, then open the model fit pages linked below — lasts differ even when charts match.

Clothes sizing uses a separate compare path.
