With a breezier upper and grippier sole, the La Sportiva Bushido III Trail Running Shoe is even better than ever. The Stability Control System utilizes a structured midfoot skeleton that wraps down over the midsole for lateral support that increases our control and agility atop the uneven terrain of the trail. These side panels have been revamped with this iteration to allow increased airflow, ensuring our feet get the fresh air they need as we push our pace. The new aggressive lug pattern chews up dirt and mud, while the sticky rubber compound adheres to rock, delivering confidence-boosting traction no matter what our strikes land on.
