Scarpa

Mojito

Men's

I love this shoe! It has a Vibram sole. The footbed is somewhat hard against the ground as compared to most cushioned running shoes, which I like. I wear this shoe for everyday use and walking. The soles grab the pavement and do not slip. The toebox is just wide enough to accommodate my somewhat squarish feet, and my narrow heels do not slip in the shoe. The suede leather gives just a bit - enough to stretch against my foot and not rub against the bones of my foot, although I would be happier if the toebox was a tiny bit wider. I wear a women's size 9.5 and the men's 8.5 fits perfectly. I contacted Scarpa directly by email to ask if the men's model has a wider toebox than the shoe of the same name marketed to women, and was told that the men's and women's Scarpa Mojito shoes are identical except for the colors. So, with that knowledge, I also ordered the same size in Parrot - a women's Mojito color. The tongue in the shoe does tend to migrate to one side, but the optional loop in the tongue helps a little with that issue. I also ordered the Superfeet Black insert for arch support and these fit into the shoe perfectly!

After owning these shoes for one month and just walking, the stitching started coming undone on both shoes. The location of the stitching is where the inside of the show meets the outside (picture attached). I do not run. I have only been walking. Zappos was fantastic through their customer support, but I am disappointed in the shoes.

I am writing this review 2.5 years after purchasing my pair of Scarpa Mojitos from Zappos, so you could say I've had plenty of time to try them out! These may be the best pair of shoes I've ever owned, for I've worn them now on numerous overseas trips. They're perfect, for they're really a combination of a rugged hiking shoe and a running shoe, so you can wear them for just about anything. I've walked hundreds of miles in these, and they're still holding up great! I particularly like the gray color for it goes with anything. Highly recommended!

These are probably the most comfortable shoes that I have ever worn. They are designed and fit like driving shoes with the laces extending up most of the top of the shoe. The arch support is moderate but I always put my own orthodotics in my shoes. They are great for everyday use and have a grippy Vibram sole. They are really light weight,have nearly no break-in period, are very well made, and great looking. I now have two pairs in different colors. A word of caution though; they are also advertised as approach shoes but they are definitely not rugged or water-proof enough to be used as approach shoes. Scarpa has other shoes such as the Gecko that are specifically built for this purpose.

Great shoe. I have had this shoe for over a month and I really like them. I have very wide feet (EEE) and I have a hard time finding shoes. One of the nice things for me is that the laces run down to the toe of the shoe. Since the laces run the length of the shoe, I am able to adjust the width of the shoe to make them more comfortable. If you get these shoes, you will not be disappointed.
