La Sportiva Akasha, Trail Running Shoes

The Akasha trail running shoe is La Sportiva’s answer to demand for a high cushion, rockered backcountry shoe. Designed for really putting on the miles without beating up your feet in the process. Lightweight materials make this shoe surprisingly nimble for such a comfortable ride, while the sticky Frixion XT outsole steps up when the trails get steep, wet or both. La Sportiva’s Trail Rocker sole, with its 6mm heel-to-toe drop, provides a super smooth transition, making it a favorite among long distance trail runners and hikers who like an extremely comfortable, high cushion shoe.
