When The Going Gets Tough
The tough gets the La Sportiva Men’s Akyra II Trail Running Shoe for rougher terrain like ridge scrambles, loose scree, and longer terrain. It’s a durable, stable trail running shoe with a higher 9mm drop designed for more control on trickier trails. La Sportiva’s Trail Rocker 2 outsole offers a natural pronation on rocky scree while the FriXion Red outsole maximizes grip through thick and thin. Ortholite cushioning works with the MEMlex EVA midsole to maintain shock absorption and comfort for the long haul. La Sportiva made the upper mostly with mesh for breathability, and an exoskeleton ensures structural support for long-lasting durability.
