As part of the Spring ’14 collection we previewed yesterday, La Sportiva is set to roll out the all-new Bushido trail running shoe as the brand continues to expand its expansive outdoor footwear lineup.

Designed for top performance on technical terrain, the Bushido feature STB stabilization technology, which consists of a TPU frame on the side of the upper that extends and wraps over the midfoot for a more stable fit. At just 9.8 ounces, the shoe is incredibly lightweight for a trail runner. It features a 6mm heel-to-toe drop for a smooth, low-to-the-ground transition, as well as a dual density FriXion XT sole for durability. The shoe also features La Sportiva’s patented Impact Brake System to help runners slow down quicker, and features overwrapped lugs on the outsole for ground-hugging traction.

Along with the Bushido, La Sportiva will release yet another trail running shoe next spring. More on that in the coming days.
