Men’s Trail Running Shoes – La Sportiva Akasha II
La Sportiva Akasha II – Men’s Trail Running & Ultra Marathon Shoes
The Men’s Shoe La Sportiva Akasha II is the technical and aesthetic redesign of La Sportiva’s top model for Mountain Running®. It is specifically engineered for endurance racing, making it ideal for Ultra-Marathons, Ultra-Trails, and long training sessions on demanding terrain. The new version combines maximum protection with the comfort required by long-distance runners.
Unmatched Comfort and Shock Absorption
Comfort is ensured by the Cushion Platform™ insert in the insole, which provides superior shock absorption. The Slip-on upper construction is soft, breathable, and wraps around the foot, eliminating pressure points during running. The generous internal volume allows the foot to “breathe” even after many hours of use.
The active Dynamic ProTechTion™ reinforcements at the front provide protection and structure, following the natural movement of the foot without restricting it.
