Item Specific Changes 2021 - Non-US shoe Sizes

Does anyone know how to be in compliance with the new US Shoe size requirement for shoes that are UK / EU / AU sized?

I can't answer the question but if they are requiring you to enter a US size even if the sizing is from the EU, UK etc, they obviously weren't thinking things through.   How unusual! (insert sarcastic emoji here)

Like the requirement in certain categories of condition to be either new with box or new without box (which implies new it originally HAD a box) when the item doesn't come new WITH a box in the first place.

For shoes that only have EU/UK sizing, I simply have to use a sizing equivalency chart (Shoeguy online has a good one).  I put both sizes in the title as well.

The problem with that is that every shoe brand has its own idea of how their sizes convert.  For example, I wear a size US 10 women's and in Mark Jacobs I wear a size 42 but in Birkenstocks I wear a size 41.

That's no doubt true, but I thought the shoe usually carries all its size equivalents on the back of the tongue or elsewhere on the shoe itself (and/or on the box, if present)...? If in doubt, I would go to the manufacturer's website and find their size and equivalence chart there.
