The i-Run team says
The La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid Leather Gore-Tex shoe for women accompanies you through a wide variety of trails. It delights hiking enthusiasts eager to experience a 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. It offers reliable waterproofing combined with breathability.
Its nubuck leather upper is resistant to abrasion, while the microfiber mudguard protects you when you tackle loose paths. The attached tongue and Comfort Collar keep you safe from debris inherent to rugged trails.
The stitched eyelets on the upper and the TPU reinforcements on either side of the midfoot wrap your foot with precision. The substantial toe cap secures you against rocky surfaces.
Responsive, the midsole is made with injected EVA Memlex foam. This material absorbs impacts with the ground and propels you at high speed thanks to excellent energy return. A midfoot insert prevents potential twisting, thereby reducing the risk of injury.
The outsole is entirely made of FriXion Blue rubber, providing good grip on a multitude of terrains. The Impact Brake System enhances the traction and grip offered by this model. This process is associated with the Trail Bite Heel construction, which secures your descents.

EVA injectée
It provides better cushioning and more elasticity during your stride than a molded EVA sole. It maintains its shape over time.
