Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

The Ribelle Cross 2 GTX is primarily a 3-season shoe. While it offers good protection, it may not provide enough insulation for extreme winter conditions. Consider insulated boots for winter use.

How do I clean the shoes?

Use a brush to remove dirt and debris. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Wear hiking socks designed for moisture-wicking and cushioning. Avoid cotton socks, which retain moisture.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

While the Ribelle Cross 2 GTX is designed for fast hiking and has elements of trail running shoe, it is primarily designed for hiking and may not offer the same level of responsiveness and agility as dedicated trail running shoes.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

The warranty information can be found on the SCARPA website or through the retailer you purchased them from.

How do I care for the GORE-TEX membrane?

Clean the shoes regularly and allow them to dry naturally. Consider using a waterproofing treatment to maintain the membrane's performance.

Can I resole these shoes?

The Ribelle Cross 2 GTX can generally be resoled by a professional cobbler, extending the life of your shoes.

Troubleshooting

Water is leaking into the shoe.

Check the laces and tongue to ensure they are properly sealed. If the issue persists, the GORE-TEX membrane may be damaged; consider professional repair or replacement.

The shoes feel too tight.

Adjust the lacing system to loosen the fit. If necessary, consider a larger size or thinner socks.

Poor grip on wet surfaces.

Clean the outsole to remove any mud or debris. Check the tread for excessive wear; consider replacing the shoes if the tread is worn down.

Shoes feel heavy or uncomfortable.

Ensure the correct size and fit. Make sure you are using appropriate hiking socks. Check for any pressure points and adjust lacing accordingly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
