The Mutant by La Sportiva is a versatile, extremely stable trail and fell running shoe, suitable for a variety of off-road terrains from mountains and muddy hills to fields and parks. This latest edition sees a few refinements, whilst keeping the overall structure of its popular predecessor. The lacing system has been adjusted to give a more secure fit and hold, so important when running on rough terrain. The new upper design is inspired by the topography of the Val di Fiemme valley. The ultra-sticky rubber sole means you can run confidently on even the slickest of rocks, the grip works well in mud, and the cushioning offers protection when you’re running on firmer ground or over longer distances.
The SpyralTongue™ technology helps with quick pulling on and off but also works as an integrated gaiter that hugs the lower part of the ankle and keeps debris, stones and mud out. It also allows fit adjustments when your feet swell due to heat or long runs.
The EVA injected midsole keeps the same responsive feel during the entire lifespan of the shoe thanks to the reduced 'squash' effect of the foam.
Unique lacing system with FusionGate™ technology; the laces are integrated into the upper to ensure an incredibly secure fit that holds as you scramble up, down and over the most challenging trial terrains.
The FriXion® White outsole rubber is a super sticky, non-marking durable compound. Designed for high performance in mountain running. The 6.5mm deep lugs, spaced to provide excellent grip and mud-release, makes this trainer ideal for sky-racing or running, running on soft or muddy terrain and over any distance.
La Sportiva was born in 1928, when Narciso Delladio hand crafted wooden leather boots for many lumber-jacks and farmers of the Dolomites in Italy. Now in the Fiemme Valley they produce shoes, accessories, and apparel for all kind of outdoor activities, particularly mountain running.
La Sportiva apparel is a high-performance running gear, designed to protect you from any weather elements. Tackle the outdoors with a high level of breathability, anti-odour technology, as well as maximum protection against rain and wind. Their eco-compatible PFC-free fabrics have a Bluesign certification.
The brand is passionate about the outdoor sports and innovation, having a wide range of long-lasting and high performing products. They’re also leaders in running shoes and clothing without any animal components, appealing to vegan customers.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE FOR RUNNING SHOES
Your running shoe size will generally be 1 to 1.5 sizes bigger than your regular (‘dress’) shoe size. Bear in mind also that one foot can be slightly bigger than the other.
LENGTH
First, kick your foot back into the heel of each shoe before checking how much space is left at the front. When standing in each shoe with your full weight on the foot, it’s best to have between half and a full thumb's width between the end of the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
WIDTH
When standing in the shoe, it’s best to have a little wiggle room for the toes, but the back of heel should still feel nicely secure.
SPIKES
Sprint spikes are best when a close fit. Distance spikes best when up to a half a thumb's width between the end of the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
