Ring Size Calculator

Measure a ring’s inside diameter or your finger’s circumference in millimetres and get the closest US, UK/AU and EU ring sizes.

How ring sizing works

Every ring-size system is just a label on the same physical measurement: the inside circumference in millimetres. The US runs on numbers, the UK and Australia on letters, and most of Europe uses the circumference itself. Measure once — either the inside diameter of a ring that fits, or a snug string around the finger — and this calculator converts to all three, flagging anything outside the standard range instead of forcing a bad match.

How to use it

  1. Pick what you measured: inside diameter of an existing ring, or finger circumference.
  2. Enter the millimetres.
  3. Read the closest US, UK/AU and EU sizes.

The conversion

circumference = diameter × π US size ≈ (circumference − 36.5) ÷ 2.55 · EU = circumference (mm)

A worked example

A ring with a 17.3 mm inside diameter has a circumference of 54.3 mm — that is US 7, UK N, EU 54, the single most common women’s ring size. Measure in the evening (fingers swell during the day) and prefer a ring that already fits the intended finger over a string measurement when you can — it is the more reliable of the two.

Common questions

What if I’m between sizes?
Size up — especially for wider bands, which wear tighter than thin ones on the same finger. A jeweller can usually take a ring down more easily than stretch it up.
How do I measure without a ring?
Wrap a thin strip of paper or string snugly where the ring will sit, mark the overlap, and measure the length in millimetres — that is the circumference; choose that option in the calculator.
Are men’s and women’s sizes different systems?
No — same scale, different typical range: women commonly 5–8 US, men commonly 8–12. The conversion is identical.
