Which is better for wet, rocky trails?

The Asolo Eldo Mid LTH GV. Its Vibram MegaGrip outsole and full-grain leather handle wet rock and scrapes better than the Scarpa's mesh and studded rubber.

Which is better for hot-weather day hikes?

The Scarpa Rapid Mid GTX. The mesh upper and Gore-Tex lining breathe far better than leather, and the shoe is lighter.

Is the Asolo worth about $22 more?

Yes if you hike rough or wet ground often, because the leather and MegaGrip outsole last longer and grip better. No if you mostly walk dry, easy trails.

The Asolo. Full-grain leather and a Vibram outsole resist abrasion better than a mesh upper, which is the Scarpa's weak point on rock.

Does the Scarpa fit wide feet?

It is listed as medium width. The mesh upper stretches a little, but shoppers with wide feet should try it on before buying.

The Scarpa. Its mesh and synthetic build is lighter than the Asolo's leather mid boot, which suits faster hiking.
