Safety footwear designed for the female foot

Women have a lighter bone weight, with softer and more flexible joints. These physiological differences translate to differences in footwear design, particularly with safety shoes. Simply reducing the male product size for females is not sufficient, therefore, the uvex 1 ladies footwear has been designed using a special last.

All uvex 1 models are available in a female fitting, where these models have been manufactured specifically for the shape and contours of the female foot, delivering the perfect fit.

uvex multiple fit system

Thanks to the uvex multiple fit system allows footwear to be adapted by changing the insole creating a different fit for enhanced comfort. The different fits are based on the measurement of the widest part of the foot. While the foot is under load, a measurement is taken of either the circumference of the foot at the base joint of the big toe and the base joint of the little toe, or alternatively the width of the foot at this point.
