La Sportiva Jackal Womens Trail Running Shoe

Description

The La Sportiva Women’s Jackal trail running shoe is what everyone is currently talking about in the trail running world and has a heap of technology and innovation packed in. It’s aim is women’s specific, high performance in long distance ultras. But what does this mean? Well firstly the fit is comfortable and wide, and secondly is La Sportiva’s trade marked “Infinitoo” high energy rebound technology. Basically what all the big sport brands are sprucing in their road shoes and worlds like “active rebound” is all happening here on the trails. What you get is a more efficient stride and extra cushioning comfort – it’s a win win!

 

Apart from the Sportiva Jackal’s main talking points of active rebound and comfort, you also get everything else you want in a high end trail shoe. The sole is carefully constructed with duel density rubbers and flex grooves so that the shoe behaves exactly how it should. There is a front insert which increases the cushioning and rear insert which provides awesome stabilisation. There’s also a high density EVA Rock-Shield. So as your feet get tired, sore and swollen on long runs, the Jackal is there to keep it protected, comfortable and provide that little extra spring in your step.
