La Sportiva Akasha II Trail Running Shoe - Women´s

Why We Like The Akasha II Trail Running Shoe

The Akasha II shows more mettle than its predecessor, charging fearlessly into longer distances and more technical terrain. The revamped upper sports tougher armor, barreling through brush unfazed and protecting our toes and heels from the bruisers awaiting our missteps along scree fields, all while continuing to let our feet breathe and flex easy.

Customer feedback suggests this shoe runs small, we would suggest sizing up if you are unused to a tight performance fit.
