Best Use: Mountain Hiking.

Iconic Mountain Hiking footwear, dedicated to all mountain lovers looking for a product that is as technical as it is versatile, capable of providing maximum protection and comfort, along with high flexibility and durability.

Perfect for tackling all types of routes — from the most technical mountain peaks to gravel roads, and even long-distance summer treks, like the Camino de Santiago!

The Ripstop upper ensures excellent durability and high breathability. Thanks to the rubber toe cap and lateral protective rand, it offers protection against rocks and roots.

The comfortable collar is designed with an integrated gaiter to prevent debris from entering the shoe.

The midsole combines two materials: a softer layer in direct contact with the foot, and a more structured layer positioned under the heel to increase support.

The dual external TPU heel counter enhances heel and ankle stability and structural support.

The outsole is made from top-quality FriXion White compound, known for its outstanding grip. The tread design features the proven Impact Brake System technology, with strategically angled lugs to enhance both uphill traction and downhill braking.

The outer lugs have a specific shape to increase support and stability, while flex grooves run across the entire sole to boost flexibility with every step.

Ultra Raptor 3 is the perfect tool for all hiking and adventure enthusiasts seeking an iconic and highly versatile product, capable of excelling on any type of trail, to safely reach the most beautiful peaks and every personal goal!
