On European territory, according to regulations, there are 12 width groups from 1 to 12 with interval of 0.4 (cm) between points.
In Europe, numerical indications with step of 0.5 (cm) are used for width. In addition, letters are used to indicate width. For example, B is a narrow width, EE is a wide foot.
In practice, in Europe only 3 width groups are considered: Narrow (N), Medium (M) - average, Wide (W). In the USA and England, letters A-F with step of 0.5 (cm) are used to indicate width.
