The Tarantula, with its focus on comfort, is easy to use and easy to get on and off in a flash. The unlined leather upper provides excellent moisture management and stretches enough to make them a joy to put on day after day. The forefoot shape is rounded and has a higher volume for the climber not looking to mangle their feet. Yet, the slight asymmetry is aggressive enough to perform on steeper routes and trickier moves. The highly adjustable losure system adapts to various foot types and shapes.

La Sportiva shoes are built on European half sizes which are smaller increments than US half sizes. This gives four extra sizes per size run, which gives you a better fit. More sizes = better fit.
La Sportiva recommends you fit your trad shoes one to two sizes under your street shoe size.
Remember to factor in stretch. Unlined slip-lasted shoes tend to stretch a bit more than lined shoes - about one full size. Lined shoes stretch about a half size. Remember: a well-fit comfortable shoe will work better than an ill-fitting tighter shoe.
