Kilogram to Stone and pound convertor

When you’re working out your weight, shopping for gym equipment, or simply trying to follow a recipe from another country, the differences between kilograms, stones, and pounds can get confusing quickly. That’s why we’ve created this Kilogram to Stone and Pound Converter — a simple tool to save you the headache of manual maths.

Why Do We Still Use Stones and Pounds in the UK?

Most of the world works in kilograms, but here in the UK, stones and pounds are still the go-to for talking about body weight. You’ll often hear someone say, “I’ve lost a stone!” rather than quoting a number in kilos.

Because of this mix, you’ll often need to flick between the two systems — for example, if your doctor notes your weight in kilograms, but your bathroom scales are in stones and pounds. That’s where our converter comes in handy.

How the Conversion Works

Here’s the breakdown:

• 1 kilogram (kg) = 2.20462 pounds (lb)

• 1 stone (st) = 6.35029 kilograms (kg)

• 1 stone = 14 pounds

So, if you put your weight into our converter in kilograms, it instantly shows you the equivalent in stones and pounds. No calculator required.

Quick Examples

• 70 kg = 11 st 0 lb (approx)

• 82 kg = 12 st 13 lb (approx)

• 95 kg = 14 st 13 lb (approx)

This makes it much easier to picture weight in the format you’re most comfortable with.

Other Useful Conversions

You might not always need kilograms to stones and pounds. Sometimes you’ll need it the other way around:

• Our tool also works if you want to convert pound to stone quickly.

• If you’re working the opposite way, you can check stone to pound in seconds.

• And for those who prefer metric, we’ve also included stone to kg to keep everything consistent.

Why Use an Online Converter Instead of Doing the Maths?

Of course, you could do the maths yourself, but unless you’ve got the numbers memorised, it’s fiddly and easy to slip up. With an online converter:

• You save time

• You get accuracy every time

• You can switch between units without digging out a calculator

For something as common as weight tracking, having it ready in just one click makes life simpler.

Final Word

Whether you’re tracking progress at the gym, converting a doctor’s note, or just curious about how much that luggage actually weighs, our Kilogram to Stone and Pound Converter gives you the answer instantly.

And if you’re ever unsure which unit to use, remember: kilos keep things universal, while stones and pounds are the UK’s traditional way of talking about weight. With our converter, you don’t have to choose—you can see them all side by side.
