Description
Traditional mountain climbing boots are more suited to alpine terrain because of their robust design. However, the LOWA IROX GTX MID is proof of how stability and comfort can go together hand in hand. This sporty trekking shoe impresses due to its innovative design featuring robust textiles, a breathable GORE-TEX® membrane and two-tone lining material. In combination with the non-slip sole, this makes it probably the most attractive compromise between a flat approach shoe and a heavy alpine boot.
- two-component PU midsole for optimal cushioning
- pronounced heel edge for best downhill traction
- technical profile outsole provides maximum contact and a perfect grip

“The LOWA Elika outsoles grip very well on everything I’ve thrown at them including wet rock and grass, steep side hills, up and down logs, mud, and snow. I feel confident as I cross streams, boulder hop across hillsides, or hike up and down steep slopes. The rubber that covers the toe and heel protects those areas from sharp rocks and hasn’t peeled at all like most boots I’ve had. I feel the tread material is very quiet and provides exceptional grip, but also wears very well. I give LOWA an A+ on the outsole.”

It’s water repellency is superb, making it ideal for wet environments, off-season trekking and (presumably) snow travel. Good breathability keeps feet cool and comfortable, even on hot hiking days. They are resolable and 100% vegan!”
