LA SPORTIVA ULTRA RAPTOR II SHOE

The La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II is a neutral, stable, all terrain mountain running shoe with a forefoot rock guard and an ultra sticky rubber outsole developed for long-distance off-road routes and prolonged training sessions.

The upper is in highly breathable air-mesh fabric and is assembled by integrating a shock-absorbing Endurance Platform in soft EVA with differentiated thickness (greater at the toe, lower at the heel) for excellent impact absorption in any situation and reduction of the ramp -angle. The rear stabilizing heel allows perfect control on traverses. The lacing system is integrated with the upper by means of loops sewn on the internal elastic fabric and with high-frequency reinforcements on the external mesh: this system allows you to distribute the tension of the lacing over the entire upper and wrap the foot in the best possible way for a perfect wearing comfort. Ortholite® Hybrid laces and footbed are also made from recycled materials. The result is an ultra running shoe that can be worn for many consecutive hours and is suitable for off-road use on any type of terrain.
