La Sportiva Mutant Womens Trail Running Shoes Opal/Aqua

The La Sportiva Mutant for women is the much anticipated 2015 replacement to the popular La Sportiva Crosslite. The Mutant is a very stable and versatile shoe equally comfortable at handling mountain running, sky races, and off-road trails on different types of terrain.

An ultra sticky rubber sole gives the shoe optimum grip on slippery terrain and on mud or scree. The SpyralTongue™ combines the advantages of quick fitting shoes with a traditional tongue and the protective features of a shoe with an integrated gaiter that avoids contact with stones and mud while running.

The Mutant features a new lacing system design which is integrated into to the uppers through the FusionGate™ technology with high density reinforcements.

MUDDY GROUND

These soles are particularly suited to racing on soft and muddy ground thanks to the width of the shoe and the distance of the lugs that make up the sole.

EVA – INJECTED

Highe degree of cushoning and high elasticity of the fabric. These features assist “push off” during the propulsion phase while running, making these models who use injected midsoles, ideal for use on off-road trails. Furthermore, EVA Injected midsole drastically reduce the “squash” effect of the EVA over time, allowing the product to mantain the same features for its entire duration.

ORTHOLITE® HYBRID

 

The Mountain Running® models use the exclusive eco-friendly La Sportiva insoles by OrthoLite® Hybrid, made using 20% recycled material from the production process. These insoles are designed for both men’s and women’s feet and the thicknesses and materials differ to suit the weight of the average user. Eco-friendly and washable: they contain recycled rubber and are machine-washable.
