Lock In Your Heel, Unleash Your Potential: The YASUDA Ligaresta Pro-ex2
Share
Welcome to the YASUDA Inside Review! Today, we are pulling back the curtain on a game-changing addition to our lineup: the Ligaresta Pro-ex2. Built upon the trusted foundation of the Ligaresta Pro-ex, this model retains the incredible front fit you love while introducing a revolutionary upgrade focused entirely on "heel hold."
If you have ever felt hesitant on the pitch because your heel didn't feel perfectly secure, this is the boot designed specifically for you.

The Evolution: Listening to the Players
Our classic "low-back" style cleats were designed to maximize your ankle's range of motion. However, while many players loved this freedom, we occasionally heard feedback that the shallow heel caused anxiety, making players feel as though the shoe might slip off during intense play.

We took that feedback directly to the lab. After extensive prototyping and testing with professional athletes starting in early 2021, the verdict was unanimous: elevating the heel transformed the entire experience. Players reported a massive upgrade in security, lockdown, and peace of mind.

Uncompromising Features for Maximum Lockdown
We didn’t just raise the heel and call it a day; we completely re-engineered the interior materials to complement the new "high-back" design.

-
Elevated High-Back Heel: Designed to completely eliminate slippage anxiety, giving you the ultimate secure lockdown so you can focus entirely on your game.
-
Strategic Microfiber Suede Integration:
-
Heel Lining: Upgraded with a slightly brushed microfiber suede to deliver enhanced grip, superior fit, and the durability required for a higher heel.

-
Advanced Insole: Features a plush microfiber suede top layer fused with an EVA backing, creating the perfect balance of softness, elasticity, and energy return.

-
Reinforced Tongue: Crafted from soft artificial leather and backed with thick microfiber suede across the instep, providing essential cushioning and a premium feel.

-
Heel Lining: Upgraded with a slightly brushed microfiber suede to deliver enhanced grip, superior fit, and the durability required for a higher heel.
-
Signature Hybrid Upper: We kept the fan-favorite construction!

- The front is crafted from premium Kangaroo leather, which beautifully molds to the unique shape of your foot over time for a custom-like fit.
- The heel utilizes durable artificial leather, ensuring structural integrity and longevity while keeping the boot cost-effective.
- Proven Outsole: Why change what works? The Ligaresta Pro-ex2 uses the exact same highly-rated outsole as the current Ligaresta series.
