Scarpa Mescalito Planet Review 2023

In terms of performance, the uppers have proved comfortable and robust for hiking, crossing scree and climbing in. I’ve been using them for most of the summer and they are showing little signs of wear, I am a heavy user as I am out regularly. I have noticed some small nicks to the EVA midsole – but this would be perfectly normal in the terrain I venture out in. The generous toe rand is perfect for scrambling and adds an element of water resistance for that occasional unavoidable large puddle. The toe rand is quite long as the Mescalito range is designed as a technical mountain shoe with the ability to climb cracks so you should consider this.
