The Kaptiva are trail running shoes for men, designed by the brand La Sportiva to accompany you during all your trails and skyraces over medium and long distances. The innovative SLIP-ON construction in knit fabric reduces the volume of each element of the shoe to offer you maximum freedom on the trails, optimizing your performance. Additionally, the sockliner features a single-layer elastic collar that fits perfectly around your ankle for greater comfort. The EVA midsole perfectly absorbs shocks when you run, and the TPU inserts help stabilize your foot to avoid the risk of twists, thus protecting your ankles. Finally, the Friction White outsole ensures excellent grip and traction, thanks in particular to the Impact Brake System lugs.
