La Sportiva Bushido II (Slate/Aqua) women's trail shoe

The lateral TPU frame reaches the midsole and wraps around it on the central part of the shoe. This results in a snug fitting shoe with great stability thanks to the perfect synergy between the upper and the midsole. It also results in a product that is always lighter because it does not have to insert heavy stabilizers in the centre of the shoe. The dual compound sole has different contact points. The rounded shape of the outer lugs, which gradually rise on the sides to touch the midsole, creates a continuous contact with the ground, which helps to maintain stability in case of extreme twisting of the foot. This allows the user to run safely, even on more technical terrain or in the presence of roots, rocks and branches. The maximum support and tight fit of the midfoot does not compromise the freedom of movement felt in the toe. The result is a shoe in true La Sportiva style, satisfying the demands of the most demanding runners for innovative solutions; rewriting the rules of the game with a completely new construction, never before seen in the trail running category. BUSCHIDO: free to disobey.
