Conversion tables Europe to U.K. by Spanish Residence Authentica SL

Return to previous page

Spain uses the metric system, whilst most residents from the UK & the United States are still used to the imperial system. These tables are a good guide to size differences (but please bear in mind these can always vary from manufacturer to manufacturer - so it is always wise to try on any items of clothing if you are unsure)
