La Sportiva Mutant

A concentration of technological solutions that evolve the way off road running. This is Mutant!

Mutant is the very stable and versatile mountain running shoe ideal for mountain running, sky races, and off-road trails on different types of terrain.
The ultra sticky sole allows optimum use on slippery terrain and to keep grip on mud or scree thanks to the lugs. The SpyralTongue™ combines the advantages of quick fitting shoes with a traditional tongue and the protective features of a shoe with an integrated gaiter that avoids contact with stones and mud while running. The lacing system is integrated to the uppers through the FusionGate™ technology with high density reinforcements: this solution allows to regulate inner volumes and the level of adherence of the foot within the shoe for a more precise race and stability even on traverses.

Technologies

Mid long distance
Versatile shoes created for a number of off-road runs such as skyraces, mountain running and city park running. High level of stability, shock absorption and comfort.

Mud Grounds
These soles are particularly suited to racing on soft and muddy ground thanks to the width of the shoe and the distance of the lugs that make up the sole.

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.
Super Sticy, leave no trace, long lasting compound. Ideal for high performance mountain running shoes and indoor climbing shoes.

EVA - Injected
Highe degree of cushoning and high elasticity of the fabric. These features assist “push off” during the propulsion phase while running, making these models who use injected midsoles, ideal for use on off-road trails. Furthermore, EVA Injected midsole drastically reduce the “squash” effect of the EVA over time, allowing the product to mantain the same features for its entire duration.

Ortholite MR E
The Mountain Running collection models adopt the exclusive La Sportiva insoles by Ortholite, with 2 different thickness. Both models are available in men and women version and differs for the materials’ densities.

  • Breathable for a cooler foot.
  • The unique open cell structure creates a moisture management system.
  • Long term cushioning: insole will retain over 95% of its thickness over time and won’t flatten out.
  • Anti-microbial agents and washable properties for a more igienic shoe.
