Why We Like The La Sportiva Bushido II Trail Running Shoe
The La Sportiva Bushido II Trail Running Shoe is a top choice for serious runners who tackle technical terrain. In our office, this shoe has earned a well-regarded reputation, and for good reason. The newest version of the Bushido stays true to its winning formula while making thoughtful improvements. It offers the same performance fit, drop, weight, snugness, and reliable outsole rubber and lug pattern that runners have come to love.
One standout improvement is the midsole construction. La Sportiva has introduced their proprietary LaSpEVA to enhance the shoe's responsiveness, giving you a springier ride that keeps you comfortable even during long distances. The upper has also been updated with a more breathable mesh fabric that maintains the durability of its predecessor, allowing you to confidently conquer rugged mountain terrain.
