La Sportiva Men's Akasha II Trail Running Shoes

$299.99 NZD

4 in stock
Description

Delivering the perfect blend of cushion, responsiveness and outsole traction, the Akasha II is the preferred shoe for trail runners seeking technical terrain or high mileage outings. 

The wearing comfort is given by the cushioning, thanks to the Cushion Platform ™ footbed insert and the large internal volumes as well as the soft, breathable and enveloping upper with slip-on construction that avoids compression points during the race. The Dynamic ProTechTion ™ active front reinforcements provide protection and structure following the movement of the foot dynamically and without constriction. The gripping, dual compound FriXion® Red sole is equipped with the exclusive Trail Rocker ™ solution capable of promoting the natural external heel - internal toe movement of the foot during running. Ortholite® Hybrid laces and footbed are also made from recycled materials.

Akasha II: the ultra-runner's code is expressed through protection, comfort and cushioning.

WEIGHT: 10.9oz (310g) half pair
