The Ultra Raptor ll is a lightweight, waterproof hiking shoe for extended days in the mountains and long distances.
La Sportiva has taken the ever-popular Ultra Raptor running shoe chassis and applied all the features you would come to find in a modern-day leather walking boot. Nubuck leather uppers with compression lines (which hug your foot) keep your feet secure and protected offering added durability when you are tackling rough, rocky terrain. This is backed up further with a microfibre reinforcement band with an anti-abrasion coating for outstanding durability. There is also a Gore-Tex® Extended Comfort membrane that surrounds your foot keeping it dry and warm when the conditions become a little unfavourable. A soft collar hugs and protects the ankle from mud and stones entering the shoe for a smooth day out. The sloe unit is constructed from FriXion ™ Blue which is a highly abrasion-resistant compound, with an Impact Brake System and integrated anti-shock rubber toe cap for solid traction on mixed terrain.
To summarise, the Ultra Raptor ll LTHR GTX is a fast & light, yet durable walking shoe that offers all the characteristics of a mountain running trainer and walking boot. Perfect for those who don't want to be weighed down by a hefty walking boot, want to be light on their feet and want a shoe that can go the distance.
