Product Details:

Sometimes, a single shoe model redefines a brand. For La Sportiva, the Prodigio is one of those models. Born and raised in Italy's Dolomites, La Sportiva is world-renowned for rock climbing, mountaineering, and mountain running footwear. Their running shoes tended to feature lower cushioning, firmer midsoles, and narrower profiles, all to be perfectly at home in technical alpine terrain. But the Prodigio revolutionizes their offerings.

At its introduction, the Prodigio entered as the most cushioned trail running shoe in the brand's lineup. But with its still-reasonable stack height of nitrogen-infused XFlow foam, it achieves an ideal blend of low weight, good responsiveness, and stable balance. Paired with full-length Flowfilm mesh, this midsole skillfully protects the soles of your feet from rocks. With its progressive rocker geometry and relatively wide footbed, you'll flow swiftly and stably over challenging landscapes.

For surefooted traction, La Sportiva's proprietary FriXion Red rubber outsole uses a dual-compound mix for all-terrain grip — a higher durability rubber area along the perimeter of the heel, then stickier rubber for the rest of the full length. Lastly, the engineered knit upper is designed to be highly breathable and fast-drying even in wet conditions. It's complete with a midfoot wrapping system for snug security, so you can powerfully transfer your energy to the ground.

Ready for an entirely new La Sportiva experience? Want a deft multi-tool for energetic daily training, long distances, or even ultra events? Grab the Prodigio today and take on any trail.
