Hover over the trails

The La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid Leather Gore-Tex shoe for men accompanies you through a wide variety of trails. Designed 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.

Its nubuck leather upper is abrasion-resistant to follow you without ever failing. A microfiber mudguard protects you when you tackle loose paths. The attached tongue and Comfort Collar welcome you into a cocoon of well-being while shielding you from debris inherent to rough terrains.

The stitched eyelets on 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.

Responsive, the midsole is crafted with injected EVA Memlex foam. This material is capable of absorbing every impact with the ground before propelling you at full speed thanks to a stunning energy return. A midfoot insert prevents a potential twist and, by extension, reduces the risk of injury.

Embodiment of versatility, the outsole is entirely made of FriXion Blue rubber which grants you impeccable grip on a multitude of terrains. The Impact Brake System significantly enhances 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.
