Frequently Asked Questions
What size should I order?
The Rebels run true to size, so we recommend ordering your normal sneaker size. If you have wider feet or prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider sizing up by ½ size. The wide toe box is designed to keep your feet comfortable and supported, mile after mile.

Are the Rebels waterproof?
No—Rebels are not waterproof. They’re designed as lightweight, breathable trail running shoes that keep your feet cool and comfortable on the move. If you’re looking for full waterproof protection, we recommend our Monterra hiking boots, built with a waterproof membrane to keep you dry through puddles, streams, and rainy hikes.
How heavy are these trail runners?
They’re surprisingly lightweight at just 8.8 oz (250 g) for a women’s size 7. That means you get trail-ready traction and durability without the bulk of traditional trail shoes, so every stride feels fast and effortless.
Do they have good traction?
The Ridge Rebels are built with our Grip360™ outsole and 4mm lugs that bite into dirt, gravel, and rocky terrain. Despite being incredibly lightweight at just 8.8 oz (250 g) for a women’s size 7, they deliver trail-ready traction you can count on. Feel confident on switchbacks, downhills, and everything in between.
Are these zero drop?
Nope, and here’s why. Rebels have a biomechanically neutral 8mm heel-to-toe drop, which supports proper alignment and reduces injury risk. In fact, a clinical study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found higher injury rates among minimalist shoe users compared to those in neutral shoes.
“Running in minimalist footwear appears to increase the likelihood of experiencing an injury, with full minimalist designs specifically increasing pain at the shin and calf. Clinicians should exercise caution when recommending minimalist footwear to runners...” (Reference: Taunton et al., 2012)
What if I don’t love them?
We’re confident you’ll love your Rebels. But, if we are wrong and you don't fall in love, simply return them within 30 days (unworn, with tags/packaging) for free in the U.S., and we’ll make it right. We even will pay the return shipping label. So, there's really no risk to you.
We’re runners and hikers too, and we believe comfort should never be a compromise.
