5 Peaks is stoked to announce a new footwear partnership with La Sportiva for the 5 Peaks Trail Running Series. As an all-mountain brand, La Sportiva supports community-focused events that allow athletes of all levels to push their boundaries in beautiful natural settings. We can't think of a better footwear partner for our nationwide trail running series than La Sportiva. The stunning locations and variety of distances on offer are perfectly in line with La Sportiva’s mission of designing products that let you go where you dream to go, do what you dream to do and live how you want to live.
Since 1928, La Sportiva has been designing the world's leading mountain equipment from their home base in Ziano di Fiemme in the heart of the Dolomites of Northern Italy. The tradition and heritage of handmade footwear lives on in this alpine valley, and the spirit of nearly a century of Italian design is evident in everything we make. With this heritage, La Sportiva focuses on the future, melding new technologies, ideas and innovation with rich knowledge of manufacturing to give you the most amazing products on the market.
The mountains surround the people who design and make La Sportiva’s handcrafted product. La Sprotiva’s passion for mountains and the outdoors have led us to a manufacturing approach that considers the factory's impact on the outdoor world. La Sportiva’s state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and conscious sourcing and recycling set them apart from other outdoor companies. We are confident that the result is a product that you can rely on and identify with.
As part of our partnership with La Sportiva, those that sign up for a 5 Peaks Series Pass hby March 1 will receive a La Sportiva Skyline Cap valued at $50. Look for La Sportiva Mountain Running demos throughout the series and La Sportiva prizes and swag at every event. We can't wait to see you out there!
