Ultra Raptor II Mid Gore-Tex W
The i-Run team says
Successful marriage between technicality and expertise, the La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid Gore-Tex Wide shoe for women accompanies you at high speed through a wide variety of trails. Tailored for adventure, it delights hiking enthusiasts.
The Gore-Tex Extended Comfort waterproof membrane protects you from the elements and offers great breathability. 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 failing in the task. The attached tongue and the Comfort Collar welcome you into a cocoon of well-being while protecting you from debris inherent to rough terrains. At the heel, a robust shell increases your stability.
With an impressive reactivity, the midsole is crafted with injected EVA Memlex foam. It absorbs every impact with the ground and propels you at full speed. For added safety, a midfoot insert prevents potential twisting.
Versatile, the outsole is made of FriXion White rubber which grants you impeccable grip on a multitude of terrains. The Impact Brake System enhances the grip and traction provided by this model. This process is associated with the Trail Bite Heel construction which secures your descents.
