FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While they can be worn on roads, the PRESA TRN-09 sole is specifically designed for trail surfaces and will wear down faster on abrasive asphalt.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The shoe weighs approximately 340g, reflecting its durable, supportive construction.
Is the waterproof membrane breathable?
Yes, the SCARPA waterproof system is designed for a balance of waterproofness and breathability, though it is less airy than a standard non-waterproof mesh trainer.
How should I clean my RIBELLE RUN LT WP trainers?
Hand wash with lukewarm water and a soft brush. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as heat can destroy the adhesive bonds and membrane.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
The integrated EXO system provides significant lateral arch and foot support, though you may replace the stock insole with custom orthotics if preferred.
Troubleshooting
Lacing feels uneven or creates pressure points
Loosen all eyelets and re-tighten starting from the toe, ensuring the tongue is centered and the laces aren't crossed underneath.
Foot slipping inside the shoe on descents
Utilize a runner's loop (heel lock lacing technique) to secure the ankle area more firmly.
Loss of water repellency over time
Wash the exterior gently to remove dirt and apply a PFAS-free spray-on DWR treatment designed for waterproof footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, ensure you have correctly adjusted the integrated lacing system to match your foot volume without over-tightening at the forefoot. Because these trainers utilize a waterproof membrane, avoid using harsh detergents that can degrade the membrane's pores. After use on muddy trails, rinse the exterior with clean water and allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, which can damage the upper materials. Remove the insoles periodically to facilitate faster drying and reduce odor buildup.
