Protection for the rugged and rocky.
There are miles of rocky, challenging terrain between you and the summit, and you couldn''t be happier, because you have the La Sportiva Men''s Akasha Running Shoe. The Akasha boasts plenty of protection, from the breathable airmesh upper reinforced with flexible, PU leather ProTechTion, to the Impact Brake System for downhill performance.
La Sportiva equipped the Akasha with a Memiex midsole made of double-injected EVA for stability and support, and there''s an additional layer called the Cushion Platform for long-lasting comfort. The grippy Frixion XT rubber sole has a Trail Rocker profile that offers excellent transition from heel to toe.
