Akasha Black/Yellow Reviews

5 Rating 3 Reviews
I first bought the Akasha from La Sportiva four years ago to train and race in the mountains over ultra distances. It has been such an excellent long distance shoe that I have purchased two more pairs. The reason I have done this is that La Sportiva have replaced this shoe with the Jackal. There are a couple of changes to the Jackal that would not suit me, such as the higher heel protector that could potentially cause Achilles problems. The Akasha is great in technical rocky terrain due to its stability, foot protection, rock plate and great traction. If you find a shoe that you really like I recommending purchasing at least two pairs because manufactures are always changing them. Sometimes for the better some for the worst. To be fair La Sportiva do not change their shoe designs as often as most, but the Akasha is a loss as far as I am concerned.

Super comfy over long distances on most surfaces. Sizes narrow so go up a half or a whole size. Does need a certain amount of breaking in. Recommended.
