These shoes do the business over rough terrain but also look great for an arty look in general use. They hold the foot brilliantly and feel comfortable even after long hours of use. Still looking good after a year.

Absolute rubbish.

I have had many pairs of scarpa shoes and have always been delighted with them. Unfortunately this is something I cannot say about Scarpa Mojitos. They are not in the slightest bit waterproof , even a small bit of wet grass soaks straight through the shoe wetting your feet. I have only worn them twice and on both occasions my socks have turned pink due to the dye leeching from the shoe. The white laces have also turned a mottled pink colour too. They are useless for the British weather as you can never guarantee every time you go out that it won’t rain. Even the most non waterproof shoes I have had in the past are better than these!! Save your money buy something else.

Advantages
Nothing
Disadvantages
Not waterproof
Causes blisters

Agree

The colours are super, but that's about it.

There is nothing wrong with these shoes, as such. They are exactly 'as shown on the tin'.
However, once they arrived I found that I didn't find them aesthetically pleasing. I don't like the extent of the shoe laces, i.e., right down to the end of the shoe. This is clear in the photos, but I suppose I just didn't pay enough attention.
My only real, non-subjective, gripe is the lack of cushioning in the sole. I went for a one hour walk yesterday on packed earth and gravel. One hour was enough. I wouldn't want to go for a longer walk.
Final verdict: fine for looking cool around town, but not for any serious perambulating.

I find these very comfortable. The area for your foot is quite wide so it lets your toes spread naturally.

My third pair!

I have been wearing these shoes for several years, sadly the sole on my everyday pair has now worn out, I wear them every weekday for work, they are comfortable and support my feet, my feet are fussy and need support on the heel and the arch, these shoes are perfect and very well made, great for walking in too, they have good grip and the rubber on the toe gives a bit of protection.

  • Advantages
    Comfortable

Definitely buy again and again

Recently fractured my foot went to minor injury they offered me a boot then looked at my scarpa mantas and said they looked a very supportive shoe and that they would be perfect. Best shoes ever fit like a glove I have 4 pairs. Heather

Very versatile

I bought these shoes for everyday leisure wear ahead of a trip to the Canadian Rockies in August.

I wasn't expecting to hike in them as I had a heavier boot for that, and I thought the sole was too thin.

In the end it was so hot there that I wore these every day and did 4 16+ mile hikes in them. Grip is excellent; comfortable on my really wide feed; don't get hot and surprisingly my feet didn't get sore. I stubbed my foot multiple times on rocks roots and other sticky out stuff and never once felt any pain

Only issue is that the Fabric tongue is not in the least bit waterproof.

My go to trainer from then to now

MOJITOS ROCK

This is not my first pair of Mojitos and certainly will not be my last, personally I would not use them for more rugged activities although I think they could take some abuse but they are ideal as a lifestyle everyday leisure and travel shoe. There is absolutely nothing I dislike about these shoes, it's like having a pair of vibram soled slippers on your feet.

Hi Kate, There's not too much in it really but the Cherry is a slightly deeper tone and with a light grey / beige tone tongue whereas the tongue of the Red Rose is the same cerise like tone.
