FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

The Scarpa Rapid XT GTX provides excellent weather protection and grip for hiking in various conditions, but it is not specifically designed for extreme winter conditions. Consider using appropriate winter hiking boots for deeper snow and colder temperatures.

How do I clean the suede leather upper?

Use a soft brush to remove dirt. Then, use a damp cloth to wipe the surface gently. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Can I resole these shoes?

Yes, these shoes can be resoled. Contact an authorized Scarpa resole shop.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information, which is typically two years from the date of purchase.

What type of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Wear hiking socks designed for moisture-wicking and cushioning to enhance comfort and performance.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Check the lacing and ensure the tongue is properly positioned. If the problem persists, consider a larger size or a different sock thickness.

Water is leaking into the shoes.

Check for any damage to the upper or sole. Ensure the laces are properly tightened, and consider re-applying a water repellent treatment.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. The Vibram® Megagrip outsole should provide excellent grip; if the problem persists, consider the wear and tear on the sole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent waterproof and breathable performance due to the GORE-TEX ePE membrane.
Superior grip on various terrains with the Vibram® Megagrip outsole.

Cons

Approach shoes are specifically designed for hiking and scrambling and may not be suitable for other activities.
The aggressive tread design can wear down faster on paved surfaces.

Care Instructions:
