Description
Trail running is huge, and at the forefront are La Sportiva with their growing range. Their latest update to the Helios line up brings additional comfort and durability with the extra padding in the tongue and ankle and an upgrade to the upper and sole with a ripstop mono burr upper and Frixion® At 2.0 rubber on the sole. All this and its still one of the lightest trail-running shoes on the market weighing in at only 220g per shoe! The Helios is designed for shorter off-road runs but is also great for casual use or light trail walks. A surprise though is its perfection as a travelling shoe - lightweight, quick-drying, good-looking and able to double as a runner when necessary. Take it everywhere!
Features
- ultralight Mono-burr mesh and rip-stop nylon upper for maximum durability and breathability
- wrap-around cuff with 3D foam padded inserts for out-or-the-box, all day comfort
- Frixion® At 2.0 rubber compound provides durability and traction
- flexible and crush-resistant rear heel counter means easy on/off and increased comfort

Testimonials
"I spent close to 3 hours in this store today, being fitted for and choosing a pack, and the staff are fantastic. Helpful, knowledgeable, patient and friendly - and I think I'm probably a fussy customer and I have difficulty finding packs that fit comfortably. Has to be my best experience in this kind of store to date."

"My favourite outdoor shop in Sydney. This is where you go if you want to see gear stocked because of it's quality, not just because it's corporate overload has pumped out another 10,000 puffer jackets that need to be moved before next season. Knowledgeable staff that actually partake in trekking and travelling themselves. Definitely worth dropping in!"

"Always friendly, helpful staff with great knowledge. Great range of good quality products (nothing really low end) including Australian/NZ brands e.g. Wilderness Equipment, One Planet and Aarn. Never had a fuss with exchanging unused gear within the 2 week period."
