The La Sportiva Cyklon is the performance shoe for skyraces and off-road racing on technical terrain at medium distance. The result of research and development between La Sportiva and BOA®, it is a product that guarantees stability, precision and a perfect fit thanks to the new Dynamic Cage™ powered by the BOA® Fit System that works in synergy with 3 different elements of the upper for perfect binding and stability of the foot for a safe and precise downhill run.
The heart of the lacing system is the internal Dynamic Flap™ that wraps the foot and is activated instantly and precisely via the BOA® Fit System with one effortless hand movement. The protective TPU toecap and the multi-layer, thermo-adhesive side panel provide additional structure and impact protection. The mud-ground tread, ideal for use on soft and muddy ground, is in ultra-grippy La Sportiva FriXion™ White compound and provides the possibility of integrating AT Grip Spike nails in case of use on icy ground. The double-density EVA midsole with stabilizer insert contributes to the overall stability of the shoe and contains weight.
