Description
LOWA LOCARNO GTX LO
Hiking shoes are by definition not necessarily suited for everyday wear. Nevertheless, they are being worn more and more often in the city. What was previously considered stiff and excessive is in today’s urban lifestyle nearly the norm. The functional hybrid LOWA Locarno GTX LO with a casual look is consciously heading off in a new direction, one in which it skilfully pulls off the balancing act between lifestyle and outdoor footwear. The trendy shoe shines in every way. The reduced LOWA Monowrap frame that optimally supports the foot and the cushioning mid-sole made of LOWA DynaPU create a complete, eye-catching look. “Lifestyle meets outdoor” – this sums up the essence of the functional models in the best possible way. It is also equipped with a GORE-TEX membrane. The innovative technology delivers optimal waterproof protection and breathability! With its urban trendsetters, LOWA once again provides a multifunctional solution for all sorts of activities for users’ shoe closets – no matter whether the footwear is destined for use in the mountains or downtown.
The Locarno GTX LO is equipped with a LOWA rubber outsole. Conceived by LOWA to meet the challenges of real-world use, the profile design is made from an optimized rubber compound. The result is a rubber outsole with good traction in the backcountry and off-trail. The self-cleaning LOWA HYBRID TRAC sole is perfect for everyday use when the weather turns windy and nasty. With the help of its profile design and special tip and heel construction, it demonstrates its true strengths during ascents and descents.
More features:
• Outdoor-oriented tread.
• Self-cleaning sole concept.
• Special tread design at the toe and heel for improved traction on uphills and downhills.
The Locarno GTX LO is also available in a wider version as the LOWA Locarno GTX LO WIDE.
Did you know? All LOWA footwear is 100% made and sourced in Europe! This means the fabric, and other materials that go into a LOWA are all manufactured under the world’s most strict environmental and humanitarian standards. In the EU, fair labour and environmental standards are the law of the land. LOWA’s strategy of producing 100% of its products in Europe and remaining in its headquarters in Jetzendorf still proves itself a model of success. Customers appreciate the combination of tradition and innovation and value the function, quality and fit of LOWA footwear.

“Take a pair of early 2000s Etnies or Vans, beef it up with more tread and support and you’d arrive at the Locarno GTX Lo. Of the hiking shoes on this list, the Locarno is by far the most casual in appearance, but it’s still reliably apt for trail use. It’s an interesting choice for Lowa, which has a long history as a core hiking brand that dates back to 1923.”
