Women's Waterproof Mid Hiking Boots - La Sportiva Ultra Raptor 3 Mid GTX
La Sportiva Ultra Raptor 3 Mid GTX women's waterproof hiking boots. Featuring a GORE-TEX ePE membrane, FriXion White outsole & Impact Brake System
When long-distance hikes, mountaineering, trekking and demanding trail routes require maximum protection, stability and waterproofing —whether for women hikers and mountain adventure enthusiasts, or for those looking for a technical and versatile boot for all types of terrain— the La Sportiva Ultra Raptor 3 Mid GTX Woman women's hiking boots offer the ultimate solution.
The third generation of La Sportiva's legendary model combines the versatility of a mountain running shoe with the protection and stability of a semi-rigid hiking boot. It features the eco-friendly GORE-TEX ePE Extended Comfort waterproof membrane, which provides complete protection against rain and mud while offering excellent breathability. The durable upper made from breathable mesh is reinforced with a protective rubber toe cap and a full rubber rand for maximum protection against rocks and roots.
The midsole combines soft cushioning with a structured layer of compact EVA foam in the heel, providing excellent support, shock absorption (8 mm drop) and stability with every step. The FriXion® White outsole with Impact Brake System™ technology ensures excellent grip on ascents and complete control on descents, while the special flex grooves provide full freedom of movement. The soft padded collar protects the ankle and prevents stones and dirt from entering the boot.
