“Frankly, I’ve been amazed that my feet can withstand spending 12-hours hiking through the mountains, with a 40lb load on my back, and still be somewhat pain-free. There’s no doubt that the LOWA Tibets have prevented foot fatigue and soreness on long, high-mileage days. In fact, I recently tested another boot and noticed that my feet were much more fatigued half-way through the day than they were compared to the LOWA Tibets, and by the end of the day my feet were quite sore in the other boot I tested.”

“Overall I really love these boots, they’ve got a gore-tex interior lining which means it’s 100% waterproof and they are really super breathable which is an important factor when looking for comfortable boots. Like I mentioned earlier, I’ve taken these boots everywhere with me, to places such as South Africa, Nepal, Europe, South America and the Fjords of Iceland, and they have really performed extremely well. If you’re looking for a great pair backpacking boots you should definitely check out the LOWA Tibet Pro GTX boots.”

“Selecting the footwear is one of the most crucial decisions made by an outdoor enthusiast. If you are a bow-hunting elk in the hilly terrains, then it is a must for you to choose your footwear carefully. Elk hunts need footwear that is strong and comfortable. This boot is built for handling rough terrain. If you are looking for a very tough boot, then you should already understand from this Lowa boots review that this is the boot you need in your life. This boot is not just harsh, but it is durable and resistant to water. The Lowa Tibet GTX was designed as a workhorse boot for harsh terrains. The very supportive but slightly flexible FlexFit design helps your foot from any kind of sudden twisting and also allows sensitivity to terrains.”

“When it comes to a hard core boot that will handle the terrain and take care of your feet, the LOWA Tibet is what you should look at. […] These can be used for just about any trail in India, any season. Combined with a suitable gaiter, they will be the ultimate answer to monsoon treks in western and eastern Ghats through numerous streams and waterfalls. Mountains are their home and the ambient temperature does not matter, even if it is as low as -30 deg. Snow, slush, moraine, glacier, water streams, city life, summit attempts, no matter the location, the Tibet Gtx from LOWA is a front runner.”
