The i-Run team says
Hover over the trails
A successful marriage between technicality and expertise, the La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid Gore-Tex shoe for women accompanies you at high speed through a wide variety of trails. Tailored for adventure, it delights hiking enthusiasts eager to experience a new sense of dynamism.
When weather conditions are not in your favor, the Gore-Tex Extended Comfort membrane ensures you are in the best possible conditions. To achieve this, it offers you remarkably reliable waterproofing combined with consistently adequate breathability. As a result, you progress sheltered from the elements, even if nature unleashes its fury. Assembled via a single layer, this coating maintains a weight similar to that of a classic shoe to contribute to your comfort and significantly reduce drying time.
Its upper is adorned with an extremely abrasion-resistant mesh to follow you without ever failing. To perfect this, a microfiber mudguard protects you when you tackle loose paths. This also features patterns that increase the overall durability. The attached tongue and Comfort Collar welcome you into a cocoon of well-being while shielding you from debris inherent to rough terrains. At the heel, a robust shell provides reassuring stability so you can exhibit absolute serenity with every step.
Ingenious, the lacing system is specially designed to offer you an optimal pressure distribution. For this, the eyelets stitched onto the upper and the TPU reinforcements, placed on either side of the midfoot, envelop your foot with surgical precision. The imposing toe cap prevents any potential mishap while you face rocky surfaces.
With an impressive reactivity, the midsole is crafted with injected EVA Memlex foam. This material is capable of absorbing the slightest impact with the ground before propelling you at full speed thanks to a stunning energy return. Its elasticity guarantees increased longevity as it allows the block to regain its original shape. To further enhance your escapades, a midfoot insert aims to prevent potential torsion and, by extension, reduce the risk of injury.
Embodiment of versatility, the outsole is entirely composed of FriXion White rubber which grants you impeccable grip on a multitude of terrains. The Impact Brake System prodigiously improves the traction and grip provided by this model. This process is associated with the Trail Bite Heel construction which secures your descents for unwavering pleasure.
