The Ultra Raptor 3 GTX trail shoes are built for adventurous hikers always on the hunt for the next challenge.

The iconic Ultra Raptor 3 GTX hiking shoes are as versatile as they are technical. Whether tackling a long-distance trek or hitting local trails, these shoes are an adaptable bit of kit to take you there.

The durable ripstop upper is reinforced with a rubber toe cap and rand to protect against rocks and roots. And a breathable GORE-TEX ePE Extended Comfort lining adds waterproofness. The midsole combines a soft material with a more structured layer under the heel for increased support. And the collar is designed with an integrated gaiter to keep out stones, gravel and other debris.

A FriXion® White compound outsole with Impact Brake System™ technology provides outstanding grip for uphill traction and downhill control. Flex grooves along the sole boost freedom of movement for scrambling, while a TPU heel counter adds stability with every step.

The Ultra Raptor 3 GTX shoes are tough all-rounders made to help you explore.

Impact Brake System Mountain Running

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.

Frixion White

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.

Gore-Tex Extended Comfort

Shoes engineered with GORE-TEX Extended Comfort product technology are designed for indoor and outdoor use in moderate and warmer conditions or during higher activity levels.

They are durably waterproof combined with optimized breathability, offering enduring weather protection. Water stays on the outside while perspiration can easily escape from the inside.

Thanks to their non-insulated construction, they are the ideal solution for people who value outstanding climate comfort and heat release.
