RIBELLE® RUN 2 WOMEN'S

Great All Round

I have fun with these babies on trails and roads. Great all round, in my opinion. The colour is great. Tempted to wear them everywhere. :)

Love this new Ribelle!

I had last year's Ribelle Run XT. The 2 is a lighter and cushier ride than the predecessor, on a slightly less torsionally rigid platform, with the same light flexible upper. The two parts work well together. With the old Ribelles, occasionally the terrain would twist my upper foot in the shoe while the platform stayed solid, which was unnerving. The new Ribelle 2 is a joy to run on trails, a secure descender, and great on easy hikes or fire roads. I would give this shoe 5 stars but I have very narrow heels and ankles, so I lose contact with the back of the shoes when running up steeper trails. Otherwise they are just great, and I'm hoping with break in, the heel will seat better. They are also very nice looking shoes; sleeker than the old Ribelles. Size runs slightly bigger/longer than other Scarpas I've had- I'm in between sizes and going smaller does not cramp my toes. All in all this is a great trail runner that can handle technical terrain or if you have feet that need more support and stability.
