LA SPORTIVA ULTRA RAPTOR II men

A new aesthetic of the iconic Ultra Raptor, a trail running shoe developed for long-distance off-road trails and extended training sessions.

A new aesthetic of the famous Ultra Raptor, a trail running shoe developed for long-distance off-road trails and extended training sessions. The upper is made of highly breathable air-mesh fabric and is assembled by integrating a soft EVA "Endurance Platform" cushioning platform with differentiated thickness (heavier at the toe, lower at the heel) for excellent shock absorption in all situations and reduction of ramp angle. The rear heel stabilizer allows perfect control on the crossbeams. The lacing system integrates with the upper through loops sewn into the internal stretch fabric and with high-frequency reinforcements on the external mesh: this system distributes lacing tension across the entire instep and optimally wraps the foot for perfect wearing comfort. The laces and the Ortholite® Hybrid insole are also made from recycled materials. The Ultra Raptor II is also available in a comfortable, wide-fit version designed for runners with wide feet. The result is an ultra-light shoe that can be worn for many consecutive hours and is suitable for both off-road and any type of terrain. Raptorize yourself, again.
