The La Sportiva Prodigio is built to tackle any off-road adventure and is designed to meet the expectations of long-distance Ultra Trail runners looking for exceptional cushioning and energy return.
Innovative XFlow™ technology in the midsole ensures exceptional cushioning by absorbing the negative impact with the ground and returning this energy to you - propelling you forward mile after mile.
The lacing system sees the loops incorporated directly into the side panels of the uppers - which allows the volume of the shoe to adjust throughout your run as your foot swells. The construction wrapping system of the uppers envelops the foot securely and ensures security in the heel whilst the large toe box and highly breathable uppers provide and maintain maximum comfort over long distances.
The outsole features La Sportiva's FriXion Red rubber which provides the ultimate underfoot security, stemming from the perfect combination of grip, durability and shock absorption.
