La Sportiva's Prodigio Max combines all the cushion, comfort, and protection needed for weekly long runs and for ultra runners to tackle the toughest trails on Earth.
The La Sportiva Prodigio Max takes the Prodigio trail line in the direction of long-haul comfort and endurance, with a wider forefoot and the extra cushioning needed to stretch for those extra miles. It threads the needle between minimizing fatigue and remaining responsive, while giving the support needed to tackle ultra trails with confidence.
La Sportiva's XFlow Endurance midsole foam provides long-lasting comfort. It combines a supercritical ETPU foam core for enduring performance, wrapped with a nitrogen-infused EVA foam cage for steady adaptability.
The shoe's understated rocker facilitates smooth and efficient forward motion, while 4 mm outsole lugs provide exceptional traction. Its dual-compound outsole features stickier rubber in the forefoot and higher durability rubber in the heel, so the Prodigio Max is ready to tackle any trail, no matter how long or gnarly.
Lastly, the shoe's upper is composed of a combination of TPEE polyester and TPU yarn, delivering the durability and strong support necessary for the shoe's long-lasting performance to match your own.
The La Sportiva Prodigio Max takes the "everything and the kitchen sink" approach to long miles, giving newer trail runners and diehard ultra runners alike the features needed to tackle any trail, any time, your way.
