TECHNOLOGY:

 

Vibram®: The benchmark for abrasion-resistant rubber soles. Exclusive compositions are created according to the specific requirements of each activity. For hiking and trekking, shoes with Vibram technology have a sole that ensures optimal traction, support and cushioning, even on uneven terrain.

 

IMPACT BRAKE SYSTEM: The innovative system is applied to the sole to absorb negative ground impact, help traction and improve grip downhill. Created and developed by La Sportiva R&D department, the Impact Brake System provides real racing advantages by reducing the negative impact on the ground. The unique position of the studs allows as many of them as possible to come into contact with the ground, for maximum impact absorption.

BRAKE: increased braking effect/greater traction.

IMPACT: improved shock absorption on impact/less stress on he joints.
