The La Sportiva FriXion® rubber compounds are designed to provide footwear professionals with different levels of grip and durability depending on the type of use and the surface.The La Sportiva FriXion series consists of 5 rubber compounds, which are used in the field of mountain running and climbing.
EVA - INJECTED
The injected sole has high damping properties and elasticity of the material. These properties supported the forward impression during running and therefore these models are particularly suitable for off-road trails. Injected EVA midsoles reduce compression phenomena of the midsole, which can appear with advancing life and thus allow the material to maintain the same performance characteristics.
High volume

Impact Break System

Due to the special arrangement of the pimples, some of them come into contact with the ground beforehand, so the impact of the shoe profile is softer.
