La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II woman shoes 2024

Raptorize yourself, again

Ultra Raptor II Woman is the aesthetic re-edit of the famous Ultra Raptor model, a trail running shoe 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. Ultra Raptor II is also available in a wide-fit comfort version dedicated to runners with wide feet. 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. Raptorize yourself, again.

The unique position of the lugs allows as many of them as possible to come into contact with the ground, for maximum impact absorption.
