La Sportiva is a brand known for its very slim fit. We strongly recommend choosing at least a half-size up from your regular US shoe size. If you are at the upper end of a size range, consider going up a full size.
The Trail Runner Store does not assume responsibility if the sizing is still not a perfect fit for you.
DESCRIPTION
With the Bushido II GTX, the cold, snow, rain or ice won’t stop you from running on your favorite trails in every season. The Gore-Tex® Invisible Fit™ membrane repels the elements without compromising fit while a balanced blend of traction and grip will keep you upright and secure on all types of terrain.
- Gore-Tex® Invisible Fit™ membrane protects from rain and snow while maintaining the same fit and feel as the non-Gore-Tex® Bushido II
- Slip-on construction wraps your foot like a sock without compressing or exerting pressure points
- Outsole lug design wraps the midsole to provide added traction and enhanced stability on off-camber terrain
- Frixion XT® V-Groove2™ dual-compound rubber guarantees superb grip on any type of terrain, dry or wet
- The padded tongue is ergonomic, highly-breathable and will stay in place with the gusseted construction
