Hiking boots Scarpa MOJITO HIKE GTX — Gore‑Tex, weight 495 g (pair)

Scarpa MOJITO HIKE GTX are hiking boots made from water-repellent suede leather with a rubber protective toe cap and a GORE-TEX membrane designed to deliver breathable waterproof protection. The pair weighs approximately 495 g and features a Salix sole with an EVA midsole and Vibram® XS TREK outsole to provide comfort and traction across varied terrain. The model includes custom lacing that extends to the toe for a precise fit and is designed with Activ Impact and Activ Fit technologies to reduce impact forces and improve overall comfort. The shoes can be resoled at authorised service centres to extend their usable life.

Advantages

The water-repellent suede upper combined with a GORE-TEX membrane offers reliable protection from wet conditions while maintaining breathability. Custom lacing to the toe delivers fine adjustability and a secure fit. The Vibram® XS TREK outsole and EVA midsole provide grip and cushioning for mixed trails and urban surfaces. Activ Impact reduces lower-limb stress by absorbing ground impacts, and the Activ Fit design ensures a shaped fit developed specifically for outdoor activities.

Suitable for

• Day hikes and short treks on mixed terrain
• Urban outdoor use and travel where waterproofing and comfort are needed
• Light backpacking with moderate loads

When it may not be suitable

These boots are intended for day hikes and light trekking; they may not provide enough ankle support or heavy-duty durability for long-distance backpacking with heavy loads or for technical mountaineering. For prolonged expeditions or highly technical routes, a more robust, higher-cut mountaineering boot would be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Lining: GORE-TEX membrane (PFC-free, without DWR treatment)
• Sole: Salix sole with EVA midsole and Vibram® XS TREK rubber outsole
• Weight: approximately 495 g per pair

How to use

Use these boots for day hikes, walking on mixed trails and for general outdoor activities where waterproofing and breathability are required. Adjust the custom lacing to achieve a snug but comfortable fit—tighten the lower sections for forefoot security and loosen slightly over the ankle for freedom of movement. For best performance, pair with moisture-wicking socks and ensure the GORE-TEX lining remains unblocked by heavy waterproof treatments.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended use: day hikes and light trekking vs. long-distance backpacking or technical mountaineering
• Fit and sizing: try with the socks you plan to wear while hiking to confirm comfort
• Resoling: availability of authorised resole centres if you plan long-term use
• Weight: check that the approximate 495 g (pair) meets your preference for pack weight

Usage recommendations

For optimal longevity and performance, clean off mud after use, allow the boots to air-dry at room temperature, avoid applying DWR treatments to the GORE-TEX lining, and resoling before excessive wear will preserve comfort and protection.
