Abstract
A system and method for receiving footwear size and past product fit information for a user at a host computer from a client computer over a computer network, such as the Internet, is disclosed. Foot size information for the user (preferably measured in millimeters) is received from the client computer, and a recommended footwear size is determined for the selected footwear model based on the received foot size information, a length adjustment factor for the selected footwear model and past product fit information. Additionally, a width adjustment factor can be used for determining the recommended footwear size.
