La Sportiva Fireblade Trail Running Shoe - Women's

Item #LSP0076 | 21 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Little Break In Time Needed for it to show it's Tough Side

By Backcountry.com Employee November 21, 2008

I bought this shoe the week of a Ultimate XC race in Moab and 13 miles later couldn't be happier.
There were no friction points, it handled the slick rock like a champ, had great stability and filtered the sand and water out quickly.

It has an extra layer of rubber on the toe which comes in handy on the rocky trails.
Keep in mind the size: I went down 1/2 a size from my regular running shoes.

I can't comment on the insole as I put my SuperFeet in for the big run but I hear they have a great heel cup.
