The i-Run team says
A model with perfect geometry
Running becomes an art with the La Sportiva Akyra Gore-Tex shoe for men. Inspired by the ancient art of origami, it is an ideal model to accompany you during your long-distance trail sessions.
The multidirectional lugs on the outer sole feature the Frixion Red system and the Impact Brake System, providing grip on ascents and braking on descents. The Trail Rocker technology adds a final touch to promote a natural foot strike during the run.
It doubles its ingenuity to win all battles against technical terrains. Stamped Stabilizer, its midsole is as rigid as it is cushioning to prevent twists while protecting you from impact aggressions.
Its upper features the waterproof Gore-Tex membrane that protects you from rain and ensures exemplary breathability during your adventures. The Micro Lite Skeleton provides flexibility for beneficial ease.

Technologies
-
Impact Brake System
This innovative system is applied to the sole so that it absorbs negative ground impact, boosts traction on ascents, and improves grip on descents. The unique positioning of the studs allows as many of them as possible to be in contact with the ground, ensuring optimal impact absorption.
-
EVA injectée
It provides better cushioning and more elasticity during your stride than a molded EVA sole. It maintains its shape over time.
-
Frixion Red
Optimal combination of grip, wear resistance, and shock absorption. Used on versatile soles.
-
Gore-Tex Extended Comfort - Chaussure
The Gore-Tex Extended Comfort membrane provides waterproof and reliable protection in all circumstances. No matter the adventure, this coating ensures your feet stay dry. It is composed of a single layer to guarantee maximum breathability, increased lightness, and reduced drying time.
-
Ortholite MR
The Ortholite Mountain Running insole offers several advantages:
Major breathability for enhanced comfort thanks to foot ventilation, promoting sweat evaporation and keeping the foot dry, prolonged durability over time due to technology that prevents excessive wear, anti-bacterial treatment, and washable products for better overall foot hygiene. Thickness of 5 mm
