Description

Akyra is the structured and protective mountain running shoe suitable for endurance trails such as Ultra Trails and Ultra Marathons. Particularly snug, comfortable and protective, it is a trail shoe designed for extended use on off-road terrain.

It adopts a very comfortable wraparound upper structured on 3 layers that provide comfort from the inside out: comfort, thanks to the seamless construction, flexibility and structure thanks to the innovative MicroLite Skeleton™ application that follows the movement of the foot dynamically during the run, protection thanks to the Flex-Guard™ structural applications in microfibre that keep the shoe light but at the same time provide a barrier against the abrasions possible when running among rocks and roots. Exceptional stability is provided by the TrailCage System™ technology, which is placed between the two layers of the upper and gives structure and wrapping by integrating with the lacing system. The sole developed by La Sportiva’s R&D department features the new FriXion XT grippy tread with Impact Brake System and exclusive design with Trail Rocker technology which favours the natural “external heel-internal toe” support of the foot during the run. Cushioning, protection and comfort, 3 sides of a perfect geometry: the origami, which inspires the overall design of the shoe. With Akyra running is an art.
