Dimensions
There is no single, universally enforced, and utilized standard for shoe sizes, as sizing varies by brand, country, and shoe type.
The sizing depends on the manufacturer: some use a single size, some use a range (2 sizes)
As we want to keep a reasonable range of codes/sizes we selected the option of range. Example:
ELINCLOG39- CLOGS, operating theatre, polyuretane, washable, pair 38-39: Can be size 38, size 39, size 38-39, size 39-40
If we would be very precise we would have to create 4 different codes. This is for sure not efficient in stock management.
