ProLaps logo in GTA San Andreas.

ProLaps, also stylized as Pro-Laps in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, is a sportswear and sport equipment manufacturer which appears in GTA San Andreas, GTA Liberty City Stories, GTA IV and GTA V.

Description

In GTA San Andreas, ProLaps is available as an accessible clothing store where the player can purchase various sporting outfits and accessories. Based on the real-life clothing brand Reebok, the store's motto is "Train Hard"; on many of ProLaps' "Train Hard" billboards in GTA San Andreas, however, an "S" is spray-painted in front of the "Train", revising the slogan as "Strain Hard".

There are only two ProLaps locations in GTA San Andreas:

In GTA Liberty City Stories, the Biker gang members in a couple of missions are seen wearing t-shirts with the ProLaps logo on them and an advertising billboard for the store is in Chinatown, Portland.

In Grand Theft Auto IV, ProLaps still exists though is not interactive to the player as a store; the game's rendition of ProLaps is depicted during The Ballad of Gay Tony with an expanded product line, including fighting gloves (as seen in "Momma's Boy"), parachutes, and golf carts. Luis' fight club tee is also implied to be produced by ProLaps.

An advertisement for ProLaps appears in Franklin's trailer for Grand Theft Auto V. Its slogan is "We Run Los Santos", which might be a reference to Dunkin' Donuts' slogan "America Runs on Dunkin".

The vast majority of items on sale are sports-related, including specialized accessories and attires, and uniforms for specific sporting teams based in San Andreas.
