Aesthetic re-edit of the famous Ultra Raptor model, mountain hiking shoe with GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane, developed for long-distance off-road routes even in the winter months.

• The GORE-TEX membrane lining allows sweat to escape but not water to enter, making it ideal for winter running. The rear stabilizing heel allows perfect control on the crossbeams. 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. The result is a technical and light shoe that can be worn for many consecutive hours and is suitable for off-road use on any type of terrain. Raptorize yourself, again.

PLUS

• Waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane lining
• Rear stabilizing heel for perfect control on the traverses
• FriXion® White sole with pronounced Trail Bite Heel for better braking on descents
• Perfect volume adjustment and foot wrapping thanks to the particular lacing system: the loops are sewn on the inside of the upper and reinforced on the outside with high-frequency reinforcements: this system allows the tension of the lacing to be distributed over the entire upper

EVA - INJECTED

• Highe 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.

OrthoLite® Hybrid

The Mountain Running® models use the exclusive eco-friendly La Sportiva insoles by OrthoLite® Hybrid, made using 20 % recycled material from the production process. These insoles are designed for both men’s and women’s feet and the thicknesses and materials differ to suit the weight of the average user.

• Eco-friendly and washable: they contain recycled rubber and are machine-washable.
• Maximum wearing comfort thanks to the insole ventilation and the highly breathable PU foam cells: the foot is always dry and kept at the perfect temperature.
• They facilitate the wicking of sweat thus keeping the foot dry.
• Enhanced durability thanks to the anti-compression technology which keeps material compression down to less than 5 % over time.

Impact Brake System

• The innovative system is applied to the sole to absorb negative ground impact, help traction and improve grip downhill.
• 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.

FriXion™ White

The La Sportiva FriXion® compound is the result of extensive R&D aimed at creating outsoles with parameters of grip and durability that respond to all types of use and terrain.

• FriXion™ White: Super sticky, leave no trance, long lasting compound. Ideal for high performance mountain running shoes and indoor climbing shoes.

Goretex

• Shoes engineered with GORE-TEX Extended Comfort product technology are designed for indoor and outdoor use in moderate and warmer conditions or during higher activity levels.
• They are durably waterproof combined with optimized breathability, offering enduring weather protection. Water stays on the outside while perspiration can easily escape from the inside.
• Thanks to their non-insulated construction, they are the ideal solution for people who value outstanding climate comfort and heat release.
