Prodigio Max Trail Running Shoe - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This is hands-down one of the smoothest trail shoes I’ve run in. The XFlow foam feels incredibly soft underfoot but still rebounds with energy, especially on long descents. It’s light, breathable, and offers great traction, making it a reliable option for daily trail miles and big mountain efforts alike."

Trail running demands gear that responds, rebounds, and holds up over miles—and the La Sportiva Prodigio Max Trail Running Shoe delivers all that in a featherlight, high-cushion package. Engineered with next-gen XFlow™ nitrogen-infused foam, this shoe combines plush comfort and spring-loaded energy return to keep us moving efficiently on any surface. Whether we’re climbing steep switchbacks or opening up on a ridgeline descent, the Prodigio’s reactive midsole and stable design inspire speed and confidence.

Durable FriXion® Red dual-compound rubber grips varied terrain with reliable traction, and the shoe’s construction prioritizes breathability, lightweight feel, and sustainability. At under 300 grams, it’s surprisingly nimble for how much cushion it provides, and the Ortholite® Hybrid™ footbed adds moisture-wicking comfort with a lighter environmental footprint. Vegan and crafted from eco-conscious materials, the Prodigio Max is more than a high-performance trail shoe—it’s a smarter way to run.
