Geta sizing and fit

For wearable works, consider platform dimensions, hanao adjustment, foot width, and intended setting as well as foot length.

What to observe

Sizing standards vary by seller. International buyers should confirm millimetres, actual measurements, adjustment, and return terms before purchase.

Thinking as a collection

Dimensions matter even for display: record them alongside plinth, shelf, and shipping-box constraints.
