Our View - La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid Leather WIDE GTX:
The La Sportiva Raptor Mid II Leather WIDE GTX is a leather version of the mid-height fast and light hiking/trail running hybrid Ultra Raptor Mid II which doesn’t compromise in either conditions. This WIDE Version is designed for hikes with wider feet or those who like extra space in their boots. The slightly higher cut compared to the shoe version of the Ultra Raptor Mountain Running icon, is ideal when you plan to be in rough, technical terrain for linger durations and potentially carrying light loads. The extra height provides that little extra protection and comfort.
Waterproof and breathable thanks to the Gore-Tex® Extended Comfort membrane. The soft Comfort Collar protects the ankle from the entry of stones or mud and integrates the easy-fit spoiler for maximum ease of fit.
The rear stabilizing heel allows perfect control on the crossbeams. Ultra Raptor II Mid Leather GTX is also available in a wide-fit comfort version dedicated to hikers with wide feet. The result is a shoe that can be worn for many consecutive hours and is suitable for off-road use on any type of terrain.
The Ultra Raptor Mid II Leather GTX is a great all round fast and light mountain boot and is also available in a non-leather version. See our alternative listing for details.
