La Sportiva Imogene Trail Running Shoe - Men's

La Sportiva gave the Men's Imogene Trail Running Shoe a highly cushioned sole for days on the roughest trails around. Even if you're running through full-on chunder, you'll hardly notice thanks to the TrailShock midsole and nylon molded shank. A well-vented upper makes the Imogene Trail Running Shoe an ideal pick for blazing hot summer days. La Sportiva even gave this plush shoe an ultra-sticky FriXion AT outsole to ensure great traction on nearly any terrain.

Bottom Line: First-class comfort.

Nice and light

These shoes feel light and once broken in, they feel like slippers. Great traction on wet rocks too, something many shoes lack

I have been getting alot of tenderness in the pad of my forefoot

I have been getting alot of tenderness in the pad of my forefoot after about 8 to 10 miles. Do I need a better cushioned shoe or is there some other reason this is occuring?

If I need a better cushioned shoe are there any recommendations?

These shoes are designed with extra cushioning, so I don't think more padding will help. First question: have you recently started running or suddenly increased your mileage? If so, back off the miles a bit and let your body catch up. If that isn't the case, keep reading. Have you owned similar shoes previously? It is possible that these don't fit your foot properly. Are you running on pavement? The pavement is very unforgiving on your feet and joints. If this is it, try getting some trail runs in or do cross training a few times a week (bike or swim instead of running). Or, if this is a problem you had before using these shoes, it might be time to see a doctor.

Good Grip, Good Cushion. Let em breathe

By:
December 23, 2008

This is a very well vented shoe. That is the first thing I noticed when I put these on. Lots of mesh, so if your run has a lot of sand it’s going to get in your shoe, but if your run has lots or stream crossings these things are going to drain well. Very aggressive tread on the bottom. Large lugs that dig in well. Lots of cushioning too that feels good, but not overly mushy. Lastly as stated above a large toe box that lets your toes wiggle.

Any shoe recommendations for someone (me) with small frame, high

Any shoe recommendations for someone (me) with small frame, high arches with a little overpronation for trail races up to 50 mile? I like cushion with a little support without the weight. Jon.

Nikes usually have higher arches. I don't know much about ultramarathons so I can't speak from experience on what you want in a shoe on a 50 miler. I've always just used Mizuno Wave Rider 10s on roads and trails because they're so durable, but a dedicated trail runner might be better. Check out the Brooks Cascadia.

I ran the Silver Rush with these things and they rocked! Large toebox, good cushioning, and works well with my overpronation.

Great durable trail shoe

By:
June 10, 2009

I've been running in a pair of La Sportiva Imogenes for about 6 months - training, racing, you name it. These shoes have a stiffer sole that some, which is great for rocky conditions but make them feel a tad clunky at times. Deep lugs dig well in soft stuff too. Excellent cushioning for extended runs - absorbs shock very well but doesn't mush and let the ankle roll. Lots of mesh keeps things cool and airy. Long break-in period. Be prepared for that. The shoes break in slowly but take longer to wear out. I have a few hundred miles on them and they are going strong. Toebox is roomy and supportive. Visibly bland; you don't buy these to get girls attention. I bought a pair to keep in the closet for the day when I retire my current pair. This is a comfortable, durable shoe with great support. Get a pair before La Sportiva phases them out for something trendier.
