All running shoes from the La Sportiva brand are crafted by hand, and the brand always adheres strictly to industry standards as regards sizing and fit. The women’s version of running footwear are also crafted especially but with less foot-volume based on the stature of most women. For instance, in most of the women’s version of La Sportiva running shoes, the heel is close-fitting or snug even as the forefoot is somewhat broad to encourage natural toe-splay and better security. But the midfoot is usually narrow, and this deliberate design is to further lock the foot in place. The collar is also cut lower than the men’s version and configured accurately by tailoring to low foot dimensions. Most of the trail running shoes from La Sportive – or any other shoe manufacturing company for that matter – are constructed for neutral pronators. This implies that the platform is flexible, well-cushioned, and molded evenly. There are pronation-correction components or stability mechanisms.
