My favorite trail shoe and a perfect successor to the original Akasha. I feel invincible on any terrain in them! Please make the bright colors available in the US! I actually had to buy these while traveling abroad because US stores only sell the white color way (which is not great for any kind of weather/muddy trails)

I have used La Sportiva Akasha for FIVE YEARS and I was very satisfied from this model while having tried other trail shoes from other companies with disappointing experience. So I decided to have again the same trail shoe. I feel that La Sportiva Akasha II is a very stable and safe-protective trail shoe for trail races while it is also very smooth when running. I don't think that I could mention something negative for this product or propose something to be improved.

Très tenace, j ai pu effectué un ultra trail sans gêne. Elles sont légères et confortables pour les longues distances.
Elles adhérent bien à la roche.
Été comme hiver, j ai les pieds au secs👌

Lining: Non-slip mesh Midsole: Injection EVA and Cushion Platform™ Sole: FriXion® Red dual-compound with Trail Rocker™ Upper: Perforated AirMesh + PU Leather on the back and Dynamic ProTechTion™ on the toe
ALL GROUNDS: Versatile soles, ideal for all types of terrain including stone, scree, grass, moss and mud. Ideal for running either in high humidity or on dry ground. Incorporates the Impact Brake System.
The La Sportiva FriXion® compound is the result of extensive R&D aimed at creating outsoles with parameters of grip and durability that respond to all types of use and terrain.
The Frixion range uses 5 custom formulated compounds from mountain running to climbing shoes.
The innovative system is applied to the sole to absorb negative ground impact, help traction and improve grip downhill. Created and developed by the R&D department at La Sportiva, it offers real advantages during racing by reducing negative ground impact. The unique position of the lugs allows as many of them as possible to come into contact with the ground, for maximum impact absorption.
EVA - INJECTED Highe degree of cushoning and high elasticity of the fabric. These features assist “push off” during the propulsion phase while running, making these models who use injected midsoles, ideal for use on off-road trails. Furthermore, EVA Injected midsole drastically reduce the “squash” effect of the EVA over time, allowing the product to mantain the same features for its entire duration.
The La Sportiva Mountain Running® footwear adopts 3 different kind of midsoles depending on the style and on the needed performances
ULTRA LONG DISTANCE Ideal for long distance, ultra trail and ultra marathon competitions or demanding training sessions. An extremely protective and shock absorbing boot.
