-
Low
19-23mm. The shoe has a slightly cushioned feel and may feature added cushioning technologies. Performance training shoes and some trail shoes are common here. These offer protection during footstrike but prioritize a lightweight, grounded experience.
-

Stability Level
-
Neutral Running Shoes
Neutral shoes support the foot through a normal range of arch collapse and generally do not have built-in technology to correct movement.

Stability Running Shoes
Stability shoes are a great option for those who overpronate or need added support. These shoes help to limit the inward rolling motion of the ankle while running or walking and assist in guiding the foot straight through the gait cycle.

Product Highlights:
Leapfrog the competition with the Diadora Lungo Carbon long jump spikes.
An Anima PBX midsole compound provides superior springback during run-ups, allowing the shoe to handle maximum speeds with effortless control. During your takeoff phase, the Lungo Carbon's carbon plate provides optimized torisonal and longitudinal stiffness, giving your jumps that little extra 'snap' that will push you past your competitors. The rounded, ergonomic shape of the shoe's sole encourages dynamic running with an intentional focus on rolling with you into your jump phase.
The shoe's upper has been constructed with a Matryx mesh material that's light and breathable. This upper has been enhanced with carbon fiber reinforcements on the medial part of the foot, to provide additional stability where it's most necessary. Add to this the velcro and laces combination lockdown system and slippage will be a problem of the past.
Finally, the outsole is composed of a nylon-based rubber, and 7 replaceable 6 mm studs give you a just-right amount of traction for launching you forward to your newest PR.
