La Sportiva Prodigio Pro
Believe the hype! A mold-breaking trail super shoe, the La Sportiva Prodigio Pro is a non-plated leader of the pack that's crafted for performance enthusiasts, long-distance runners, and competitive athletes seeking racing excellence.
It's here! The answer to what you've been searching forthe La Sportiva Prodigio Pro is a high-performance trail running shoe for the mountains and technical terrain. By skipping a plate or stiffening element and keeping stack height reasonable, the Prodigio Pro is out to prove that less really is more among the best trail running shoes. It shares the same stack height and drop as its standard Prodigio sibling, but delivers a more energetic, cushioned, and grippy running experience.
Easily the most responsive trail running shoe in La Sportiva's lineup, the Pro employs a dual-foam XFlow Speed midsole. Composed of two nitrogen-infused supercritical foams, this powerhouse aims to redefine propulsive performance that's been expertly tuned for variable and challenging trail surfaces.
Equally exciting, the Prodigio Pro debuts Power Wire technology for the upper. Its lightweight and durable fibers, together with a midfoot wrapping system, create a precise and stable fit. While the upper enables you to transfer energy through the shoe, the extra-sticky FriXion White rubber outsole ensures all that power is delivered efficiently to the ground.
Add the responsive and ultralight La Sportiva Prodigio Pro to your quiver and elevate your ultra and mountain racing game today.

Technologies
MIDSOLE
- XFlow Speed builds on XFlow supercritical EVA as a carrier frame, amplified with a generous core of supercritical TPU for extra energy.
- SpeedFilm is a full-length, polyurethane-coated, nylon mesh to provide a thin and lightweight layer of impact protection from underfoot rocks.
- Design and geometry details include foam sidewalls and a wide base for a secure and steadied experience, as well as the absence of a strobel layer. Eliminating this extra layer saves weight and allows more direct energy transfer to the responsive foam.
OUTSOLE
- FriXion White rubber, also known as FriXion XF 2.0, is the brand's stickiest compound. It creates a full-length one-piece design for long-lasting grip.
- 4 mm lugs are deep, broad, and widely-spaced for all-terrain capability, including technical and soft ground, while retaining swift runnability for smoother trail sections.
UPPER
- Power Wire material combines TPU and polyester yarns for a lightweight, breathable, and secure fit.
- Midfoot wrapping system provides snug foot lockdown for confident and efficient power transfer to the ground.
- Overall, this style is vegan, not just for the upper. As a brand, La Sportiva is committed to sustainability. North American operations are Certified Carbon Neutral, Italian HQ is 100% powered with renewable energy, and the brand is an enduring member of Bluesign, 1% for the Planet, and other commitments.
