La Sportiva Jackal (Space Blue/Blaze) trail shoes for men

Jackal is the mountain running shoe dedicated to very long distance off-road running and medium distance training thanks to exceptional cushioning guaranteed by the innovative Infinitoo ™ high energy return technology. Every detail, from the upper to the sole, is designed to promote foot comfort over long distances: comfortable, loose fit designed for ultra-marathons, wraparound comfort fit elastic tongue for maximum freedom of movement, inner gusseted construction to protect against rocks or mud. The lacing has buckles incorporated directly into the side panels of the upper: a solution that facilitates the adjustment of volumes during long journeys when the foot tends to swell. The Net-Mesh side panels promote ventilation and climatic comfort. The heart of Jackal, however, lies in the innovative EVA sole/intersole package with cushioning inner pads made of high-energy return polyurethane Infinitoo ™ Technology . The front element increases cushioning, the rear insert helps stabilize the run. The midsole also includes a high-density EVA Rock-Shield insert for a more stable run and rock-guard effect. The sole is made of Frixion Red compound with differentiated Impact Brake System lugs and longitudinal FLEX grooves that promote sole bending along the bend lines. A lightweight, impact-resistant thermoformed toe cap provides lightness and protection, while the dual compound FriXion Red outsole offers optimal grip and durability. A concentrate of technology inspired by those who run in search of their own limits and in search of themselves. Jackal: find your ultra.
