GORE-TEX^®
The unique, flexible construction reduces weight and creates fewer pressure points, and an extremely comfortable fit and feel, so you can keep going – and going. Reliable waterproof protection means your feet stay dry, from summer showers to icy winter puddles. Perfect for short jogs or long-distance races. Moisture vapor from sweat can escape easily, so you stay comfortable-even when you are going hard. The membrane is invisibly integrated into the shoe, the lightweight construction is designed to disappear.

ALL GROUNDS
Versatile soles, ideal for all types of terrain including stone, scree, grass, moss and mud. Ideal for running either in high humidity or on dry ground. Incorporates the Impact Brake System.

La Sportiva FriXion^® BLUE
Soft, long lasting sole compound with good grip. Ideal for use on the road and track.

EVA – INJECTED
Higher degree of cushoning and high elasticity of the fabric. These features assist “push off” during the propulsion phase while running, making these models who use injected midsoles, ideal for use on off-road trails. Furthermore, EVA Injected midsole drastically reduce the “squash” effect of the EVA over time, allowing the product to mantain the same features for its entire duration.

HIGH VOLUME
Comfortable shoe, ideal for training and long distance running.

Impact Brake System
Created and developed by the R&D department at La Sportiva, it offers real advantages during racing by reducing negative ground impact. The unique position of the lugs allows as many of them as possible to come into contact with the ground, for maximum impact absorption.
