Summary:
The Scarpa Mojito Shoe for men is a comfortable and low-profile approach shoe that has a good grip on rock and uneven terrain, but is best for moderate hikes and approaches, as it does not offer enough support for rugged use. The laces offer a lot of adjustment in the shoe for added comfort, but there is little breathability in the upper. While this shoe looks like a bowling shoe, people still enjoy wearing it from the crag to the town, and enjoy the unobtrusive style for the many years that this shoe lasts.
