WAYWT - Shoes/Boots Edition!

[IrishHeart]

Sorry, my mistake, just spotted that they are Mojitos.

[Giles]

They are Mojito wraps. I bought the grey, loved them so much, got the tan.

[goosehd]

…and convinced others that they are brilliant shoes. My wife now owns four pair and I have two…f’n influencers.

[yannis]

How sizing on those compare to Adidas or New Balance or Nike?

[goosehd]

@yannis …sorry but I don’t have any of those brands

[yannis]

Thank you.

[goosehd]

@yannis I did use their size chart and went with my usual ASICS size of US 10, EU 43

[yannis]

I wear asics size US 12. You think I should go with EU 45 or 46?

[goosehd]

@yannis with my ASICS they are just a tad long in size 10 and tight at 9.5. I guess that a 9 3/4 would be ideal if they made them. I went with the 43 as I’m closer to the 43 than the 42 in their charts.

[yannis]

Thank you. I understand

[IrishHeart]

@yannis I am a UK 11 and went for a 46 which is perfect.

[yannis]

@IrishHeart. Thank you

@Giles Great looking shoes ~ I’ve been lusting after a pair of these for a while now. How do they fit? I’ve heard they run narrow, but haven’t been able to try a pair on in person?

@jordanscollected If I’m not mistaken, I think you wear these as well. What’s your take on these shoes and sizing?

@goosehd So, are you an influencer now? Would they be good for e width feet? Can’t try them on locally anywhere …

[goosehd]

@Denman-John I’ve got wide feet and they work great for me. As the laces almost go to the toe, you have quite a bit of give where and if needed.

I ordered from Scarpa Canada (selection sucks arse), but they are a great shoe. I ordered the ones in petrol. They also come on sale from time to time on Scarpa’s site.

[Giles]

I have very wide feet and a high instep, worn virtually nothing else for 10 years

@Denman-John I bought a pair of the olive wrap mojitos in summer this year and wore them a lot. Most comfortable shoe I have tbh! Took them hiking in the woods as well as walking on tiles for 10 hours and making 20k steps at work a day... Going to get another pair maybe the mid or different color.

Tbh I bought them mostly because I liked the looks, saw them on @Giles in at the bremen Party. They really surprised me.

For sizing mine are a US11, I wear a 10d/e in Red Wing/ Wesco and a 10.5 in most New Balance shoes.

[Denman John]

@goosehd @Giles @FlavourFade Thanks guys, I ordered a pair last night. I’ve had them in my cart for the last month and you guys gave me the gentle nudge needed. I hope I got the sizing right.

[Denman John]

@Giles posted one too many pictures of his mojito’s and I couldn’t resist any longer. I’ll be taking these to Nepal with me ️

[goosehd]

@Denman-John …and how do they fit?

[Denman John]

@goosehd They fit great! I went down half a size from the hiking boots I recently bought and nailed the sizing. I was able to try on 3 different sizes when I bought my Zodiac Tech GTX boots and based my decision on that. What threw me off was that I tried on a pair of 43.5 (the size I ordered) Ribelle Run 2 GTX a couple of weeks ago and they were way too small. A few people mentioned that in the reviews on the Scarpa website so I crossed my fingers.

I’ve been wearing them around the house the last few days and they feel very good on my feet. I think they’ll be great for trotting around Kathmandu next weekend
