La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid GTX Shoes Men black/clay

Ultra Raptor Mid II GTX is the mid-cut version of the Ultra Raptor II trail running model, ideal for fast hiking and excursions with a light load. Waterproof and breathable thanks to the GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane. The soft "Comfort Collar" protects the ankle against penetration by stones or mud and integrates the easy-fit spoiler for maximum ease of donning. The upper is made of friction-resistant and breathable mesh fabric, perfect for use in all conditions. The stabilizing heel insert at the back allows perfect control on cross-country sections. The lacing system is integrated with the upper through eyelets sewn onto the inner elastic fabric and hard plastic reinforcements on the outer mesh: This system allows the tension of the lacing to be distributed over the entire upper for maximum comfort.

All Grounds
Versatile sole for use on all ground conditions: Stone, scree, grass, moss, mud. Ideal for running in very damp conditions on bare ground.

EVA - Injected
The injected sole has high cushioning properties and elasticity of the material. These features support the forward push-off while running and therefore these models are particularly suitable for off-road trails. Injected EVA midsoles reduce midsole compression, allowing the material to maintain the same performance characteristics.

Ortholite hybrid footbed
The models are equipped with the exclusive La Sportiva by OrthoLite Hybrid insoles. These insoles are designed for both men's and women's feet and have different thicknesses and materials depending on the average weight of the user.

Impact Brake System
Designed and developed at La Sportiva's research and development center, it offers real benefits during running: the negative effect of impact with the ground is minimized. Due to the special arrangement of the studs, some of them come into contact with the ground beforehand, softening the impact of the shoe profile.

GORE-TEX
Featuring GORE-TEX Extended Comfort product technology, the shoes are designed for indoor and outdoor use in moderate and warmer conditions or at higher activity levels. They are permanently waterproof in combination with optimized breathability and offer lasting weather protection. Water stays on the outside, while perspiration can easily escape from the inside. Thanks to their non-insulated construction, they are the ideal solution for people who value excellent climate comfort and heat dissipation.

FriXion White
The La Sportiva FriXion rubber compounds have been developed to provide shoe profiles with different levels of grip and durability depending on the type of use and surface. The La Sportiva FriXion series consists of 5 rubber compounds, which are used for mountain running and climbing.
