La Sportiva Quantum Trail Running Shoe - Women's

Product Descriptions

REI Description: La Sportiva Quantum trail-running shoes feature sculpted, slip-lasted uppers for a close fit and cushioned midsoles that soften the blow of unpredictable terrain for a smooth, comfortable ride. Highly breathable nylon mesh uppers help keep weight low; thermoplastic urethane overlays provide support and structure. Built-in, 4-way stretch scree guards keep trail debris out. Nylon mesh linings wick moisture to help keep feet comfortable. Dynamic midsoles are made of 2 layers of different materials-just under the foot, an ergnomically shaped, firm EVA layer offers light stability and extra cushioning. Below the EVA layer is a soft, lightweight layer of polyurethane foam that delivers excellent cushioning, helps dissipate impact shock and conforms to uneven terrain. Thermoplastic urethane heel counters enhance heel stability. Wrapping the polyurethane layer, the shaped FriXion rubber outsoles of the La Sportiva Quantum shoes offer increased ground contact for great feel and responsiveness. Closeout.
