Ultra Raptor

The extremely breathable Air-mesh uppers are mounted on a soft EVA graded platform (wider at the toe and lower at the heel) for optimum shock absorption in any condition and reduction of the ramp angle. The integrated lacing system uses a strap sewn to an internal stretch fabric with high frequency reinforcements on the external mesh. This allows greater versatility in boot tension throughout the boot, thereby enhancing comfort levels. Ultra Raptor unites the performance advantages of a snug-fit construction method with those of the comfort derived from the wider shape and sole. The result is a product that can be used for several hours and is the ideal choice for endurance trails and all types of off road trails.

Technologies and manufacturing processes

  • ULTRA LONG DISTANCE

    ULTRA LONG DISTANCE products for long distances, ultra-trail competitions, ultra-marathons and intensive training sessions. Situations in which protective and very cushioning footwear is needed.
  • ALL GROUNDS

    Versatile sole for use on any ground condition: Stone, scree, grass, moss, mud. Optimal when running in very wet conditions on bare ground
  • EVA - INJECTED

    The injected sole has high damping properties and elasticity of the material. These properties support the forward footprint during running and therefore these models are particularly suitable for off-road trails. Injected EVA midsoles reduce midsole compression, which can appear as the shoe ages, allowing the material to maintain the same performance characteristics.
  • Models from the Mountain Running collection

    use exclusive La Sportiva by Ortholite insoles, which are available in 2 different diameters. The models are adapted to the male and female foot and are made with different materials in relation to the average weight of the user.
  • High volume

    High volume: Comfortable shoe, ideal for training and long distance running.
  • Innovative system on the sole to absorb the impact, also helps in the climb and supports during braking.

    Designed and developed at La Sportiva's Research and Development Centre, it offers real benefits during running: the negative effect of the impact with the ground is minimized. 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.
