La Sportiva Bushido III Shoe - Women
With the two previous iterations as evidence of its durability and versatility, the La Sportiva Bushido III keeps the great look of its predecessors and receives some excellent upgrades. This version will keep many features that have made this shoe wildly popular while making subtle but significant changes. The outsole has a new design with a wider platform for stability on rough and uneven terrain, with improved grip for off-trail travel and scrambles, thanks to a new rubber compound. For runs in the summer heat, La Sportiva has increased the upper's breathability, helping to keep feet cool and dry while maintaining the same great fit you've grown to love. The 1.5mm Rockguard, TPU toe cap, and Frixion® Red outsole help protect your feet and keep the right side up when running in technical terrain. The Bushido III is a top choice for your next mountain adventure, with over a decade of experience accompanying women to far-flung destinations.

- New outsole design offers improved traction with a wider platform and more aggressive tread.
- The use of recycled materials makes for a more eco-friendly shoe.
- Impact Brake System improves downhill grip.
- Bi-Compound Frixion® Red outsole offers superior grip in a variety of terrains.
