La Sportiva Lycan GORE-TEX Women’s Trail Running Shoes – SS23 Large Choice

La Sportiva Lycan GORETEX Women’s Trail Running Shoes

An ideal trail running shoe, the Lycan GORETEX from La Sportiva is perfect for running safely in the winter months, even on icy and snowy terrain. Comfortable and sturdy, it is a great choice for trail running enthusiasts.

Breathable Mesh Upper

The upper of the Lycan is constructed from a technical mesh that encases each foot in breathable comfort. The mesh allows air to fully permeate the entire upper, providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot muggy air. The mesh also boasts reinforcements in abrasionresistant microfibre technology to prevent roots, rocks and stones from getting into the shoes.

Additionally, the upper features a protective TPU toe cap that protects the front of the foot against trail hazards such as rocks and roots. The shoe offers a breathable, antiskid mesh lining that enhances ventilation and prevents inshoe slipping from occurring when on unpredictable terrain. Lastly, the Lycan features a 4mm Ortholite Mountain Ergonomic footbed that is extremely breathable for a cooler foot. The unique open cell structure creates a moisture management system that wicks sweat and dries incredibly fast while offering longterm cushioning. The insole will retain over 95% of its thickness over time and won’t flatten out. The footbed also features antimicrobial agents preventing the growth of odourcausing microbes, keeping your shoes smelling fresher for longer.

GORETEX Lining

The Lycan shoe is lined with GORETEX, meaning it offers durable waterproofing with outstanding breathability. The GORETEX causes water to remain outside the shoe, while perspiration molecules can escape the inside.

Shock Absorbing, Injected EVA Midsole

The Lycan from La Sportiva sports an injection moulded EVA midsole which differs from the standard compression moulded EVA midsoles for a high degree of cushioning and a better elasticity of the compound. These features assist the propulsion phase of the gait cycle, making these shoes ideal for use on offroad trails. Furthermore, EVAinjected midsoles drastically reduce the squash effect of the EVA over time, allowing the compound to maintain the same characteristics and high performance for its entire duration.

FriXion Outsole

The La Sportiva Lycan uses their unique FriXion compound which is the result of extensive R and D aimed at creating an outsole with parameters of grip and durability that respond to all types of use and terrain. The outsole is a soft, longlasting compound with amazing grip, providing an allaround trustworthy and confident outsole.
