FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable and durable, the Scarpa Ribelle Run LT WP is specifically engineered for trail running. They are best utilized for their intended purpose to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
The product description states 'true to size, standard fit'. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it with Scarpa's sizing chart. Trying them on in person or checking customer reviews for sizing advice is also beneficial.
What is the 'EXO' system?
The EXO system is an integrated exoskeleton developed by Scarpa. It provides lateral support and containment for the foot by forming protective elements directly within the upper structure.
How long will the waterproofing last?
The SCARPA Waterproof System is designed for durability. Proper care and maintenance will help preserve the waterproof properties. Avoid harsh detergents and ensure proper drying to maintain the membrane's integrity.
Can I use these shoes for hiking as well as running?
Yes, their robust construction, grip, and support make them suitable for moderate hiking, especially on trails where running would also be appropriate. However, they are optimized for the demands of trail running.
What does 'LT WP' stand for?
'LT' typically refers to 'Lightweight', and 'WP' stands for 'Waterproof'.
How should I clean the waterproof membrane?
Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the membrane. Ensure thorough rinsing and air drying.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping into the shoe
Ensure laces are properly tied and the tongue is positioned correctly. Check for any visible damage to the shoe's upper or sole that might compromise the waterproof membrane. If the issue persists after minimal wear, contact customer support.
Discomfort or pressure points during runs
Adjust the lacing system to distribute pressure more evenly. Ensure the shoe is the correct size and width for your foot. Wear with appropriate running socks. If discomfort continues, consider if the shoe's fit is suitable for your foot shape.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
Clean the sole of any accumulated mud or debris. The PRESA TRN-09 sole is designed for mixed terrain; performance may vary on extremely slick surfaces like wet polished rock. Ensure the shoe is adequately broken in.
Upper material feeling stiff
New shoes can feel stiff initially. Wear them for shorter runs or around the house to break them in. The mesh and EXO system will become more flexible with use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Scarpa Ribelle Run LT WP requires no complex setup. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tightness for a secure and comfortable fit before your first run. The standard fit is designed for most adult male feet.
Compatibility: These trainers are engineered for trail running and are compatible with various trail terrains, from dry packed earth to wet and muddy paths. They are suitable for use with standard running socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Clean the trainers using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and compromise the waterproof membrane.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are fully dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
