What is the Pinterest pin size?
1000 x 1500 pixels at a 2:3 aspect ratio. That is Pinterest's recommended size for standard pins, and pins taller than 2:3 can get cut off in some feed placements.
Pinterest Sizes (2026)
The standard Pinterest pin size is 1000 x 1500 pixels at 2:3. Pins taller than 2:3 risk being cut off in the feed, and video pins use 1080 x 1920.
Pinterest is built around one shape: the 2:3 vertical pin. Wider images get buried in a feed of tall ones, and anything taller than 2:3 can get truncated in some placements, so 1000 x 1500 is both the recommendation and the practical ceiling for a standard pin.

Can Pinterest pins be square?
Yes, 1000 x 1000 square pins display fine, but they take up less vertical space in a feed built around tall images, so 2:3 pins tend to earn more attention.
What size are Pinterest video pins?
1080 x 1920 pixels at 9:16 for full-screen vertical video, the same canvas as TikTok and Instagram Stories. A 2:3 video at 1000 x 1500 also runs in feed.
