OUTDRY <br />Scarpa® Ribelle Lite OD <br /> Summer 2018

The innovative curved last shape and the cool design are immediately recognized: this is the Lite version of the RIBELLE family. The combination of Sock-Fit XT construction system, the Tech Fabric materials and OutDry® technology make Ribelle Lite OD a light boot ideal for technical trekking, via ferrata routes and alpinism for mountain guide and mountain professionals. The Pentax Precision III sole has a light PU midsole and Vibram® Mont compound on the outsole. The TPU crampon insert on the heel makes it compatible with the use of semi-automatic crampons while the front part of the sole makes easy for the foot to roll fast off the heel.

OUTDRY® TECHNOLOGY. With OutDry® technology the membrane is laminated directly on the inner side of the Ribelle’s upper fabric. That means, water cannot accumulate in the gap between the waterproof lining and the upper: the water stays on the outer surface of the shoe and your feet remain dry. OutDry uniformly seals the upper’s inner surface with a thin waterproof barrier. There are no folds, no seams and no seam-sealing tapes. This eliminates potential points of friction with the foot, and consequently decreases the risk of blisters. Then the complete absence of any seam-sealing tape, allows the system to exploit 100% permeability of the waterproof barrier surface, thus increasing overall breathability.
