High-Mountain Hybrid
While the aesthetics of the SCARPA Ribelle HD Boot give away its alpine-focused design, dig deeper and you’ll find inspiration from running shoes, making these lighter and more comfortable than the burly silhouette would suggest. In particular, the sock-fit liner, which delivers a more secure hold of the foot, is borrowed from SCARPA’s running shoes, as is the lightweight PU midsole that adds comfort as the miles add up. Weight saving measures like the slightly thinner 2.6 mm thick suede upper help in making this boot feel like the ultimate hybrid between trail runners and alpine boots. Rugged materials and a full-perimeter rand step up the durability, ensuring that these are built to go the distance as well. And compatibility with semi-automatic crampons rounds out a piece of technical footwear that’s at its best when moving fast above treeline.
