Description

Lightweight and easy to carry. This jacket disappears into a race vest without any hassle and is barely noticeable while running. Handy for long days in changeable mountain weather where you need to react quickly.

Provides good protection during heavy rain and wind. The material keeps out prolonged precipitation without immediately feeling clammy. Especially on open ridges, wet descents, and cold sections, you notice that you remain comfortable for longer.

Remains usable during intense exertion. The underarm ventilation helps dissipate heat during climbing or increasing pace. The hood moves well, allowing you to maintain visibility and freedom of movement on technical terrain.

If you are torn between an emergency jacket and a proper running jacket, this model sits in between. Light enough for races, but protective enough for serious mountain conditions.

Why La Sportiva?

On a rocky descent or a steep, wet climb, you want to feel your shoe holding your foot firmly without slipping. That's exactly why we carry La Sportiva at Trail.NL.

La Sportiva makes trail running shoes with a close fit and grip developed in the mountains. The Prodigio family ranges from the versatile Prodigio 2 and a waterproof GTX version to the Prodigio Max for ultras. We also stock the brand's rainwear and gloves.

For us, La Sportiva is above all a true mountain brand: precise, sturdy and reliable, with a history that began in 1928 in the Italian Dolomites.
