Anklet sizes: how to find your fit
3 min read · Beach Bead Co
An anklet should sit softly, not tightly, and not fall off. A quick measurement makes it easy.
Our Shell Bead Anklet comes in three styles. The page does not list a length, so compare your measurement with an anklet you already own.
Measure your ankle
Wrap a soft tape or a strip of paper around your ankle, just above the bone. Note the number in inches.
Do it while standing, since feet swell a little when you are upright. Browse the anklets and necklaces collection when you are ready.
Add some room
Add about half an inch to your measurement for a good fit, so there is room to slide it on and off.
Compare your number with the length of an anklet you already wear, and write to us before you order if you are unsure.
Pick the style

All sales are final and sizes are not exchanged, so check before you order. Our size guide covers bracelets too.
Wearing and care
The Shell Bead Anklet is $7 and made of shell and small resin beads. Slip it over your foot rather than pulling it open wide.
Our care notes say to keep it dry, take it off for swimming and showers, and store it flat. Add an anklet to a bracelet order and you are closer to free US shipping at $75.
