These are the best trekking boots I have ever owned. With proper care and waterproofing treatment, they provide very good water resistance and a high level of comfort. They are durable while also being lightweight and comfortable. From the very first wear, they caused me no rubbing or pressure points at all. I definitely recommend them.
Lowa Renegade EVO GTX MID Boots - Navy/Grey
Trekking footwear equipped with a breathable Gore-Tex membrane. It features a waterproof and windproof design, as well as a raised upper made from abrasion-resistant nubuck leather.
Leather upper, reinforced part of the sole
The raised and stiffened upper made from durable nubuck stabilises the ankle joint and protects against injuries. The overmolded part of the rubber sole protects the toes and heel. The high-stitched tongue prevents water and dirt from getting into the shoe's interior. The front part of the footwear constructed from a single piece of material enhances comfort and allows for better fit to the owner's foot.
Waterproof GORE-TEX membrane
The footwear contains a breathable and waterproof GORE-TEX membrane ensuring proper air circulation and thermal comfort. The membrane also protects against wind, allowing comfortable wear regardless of the prevailing weather.

Gore-Tex is a thin membrane made of polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), which features a microporous structure. Its structure makes it highly water- and wind-resistant, as well as breathable. The membrane's pores are 700 times larger than a molecule of water vapor, which allows it to efficiently wick moisture to the outside. Gore-Tex is widely used in the production of outdoor clothing and footwear.
Monowrap is a three-dimensional shoe sole construction technology developed by Lowa. The combination of an injection-molded polyurethane rubber frame along with an outsole and cushioning foam provides better stability and protection for the foot. The sole form absorbs shock and supports the natural movement of the foot when walking.
DynaPU is a type of lightweight polyurethane foam used in the construction of the midsole. It is characterized by high strength, resistance to deformation and very high flexibility, which translates into the apsorption of vibrations and shocks, providing protection for feet and joints and comfort during long-term use.

Durable trekking shoes dedicated to more challenging trails. Their key features are stability and sturdiness. They provide excellent ankle support and a sense of security while walking. Suitable for all weather conditions.

The shoes are beautiful; after a few uses they still look great, the sole is holding up excellently and shows no sign of coming unstuck. The waterproofing is excellent even without any treatment. I have a higher arch and the shoes do not press on my feet, so ++. I highly recommend them for rougher terrain.

I know they may not be very tactical and you do not look like the commander of a Penguin unit in them, but they are genuinely very comfortable shoes that perform brilliantly both on flat ground and in the mountains — they make you want to keep walking in them. They are comfortable and, as you would expect from Lowa, solidly made. This is already my second pair, and the previous one lasted me more than five years. It is only worth remembering that the presence of a membrane does not mean the shoes will work like wellington boots. They can handle some moisture, but in the rain or during longer walks through wet grass, they will get soaked sooner or later — there are no miracles.
-
I took these boots one size up from my usual size – for long descents this turned out to be the right decision. They fit with a bit of extra room, not tight, with thin socks they feel a bit loose, but with thicker trekking socks, the fit is snug and comfortable. Overall, a reliable choice for trekking – I'll take them on a hike with confidence.
-
A slight downside with the colour, as the photos were misleading, but in the end I received a colour that matches the description. Apart from that, these shoes are very comfortable, provide good ankle support and are immediately pleasant to wear, unlike many mid shoes, thanks to the two independent lacing zones.
-
Top shoe from LOWA, best wearing comfort. Perfect for forest and meadow. This is already my 5th pair😉 and bought at Military for an unbeatable price. Thank you👍
-
These hiking boots are absolutely brilliant and worth every penny. They fit like a glove and aren't heavy on the feet. You also don't get any blisters on your heels. They're very comfortable to wear and it's also very easy to take them off again. I would buy them again at any time.
-
Super convenient and high quality – put the shoes on and off you go. I've been using them for a month. Absolutely no complaints during use. They fit perfectly, the grip is reliable, and my feet feel both stable and free at the same time. I recommend them.
-
Good shoes. They match all the stated characteristics. Light and comfortable. Every detail is well thought out, nothing unnecessary. Thank you to the shop for the fast delivery and the ability to pay on receipt. P.S. I recommend taking winter shoes one size up.
-
Great company and excellent footwear. The Vibram sole is a huge advantage of these shoes, since the butyl sole versions in military models are of much lower quality. Vibram provides much better grip on wet and slippery surfaces. The leather is very high quality, and the Gore-Tex membrane works excellently.
-
There's no denying it, these shoes are in a class of their own. From the first wear, it's clear they've been carefully designed – the upper perfectly stabilises the foot, and feeling secure on stony or uneven terrain gives me confidence with every step. The Gore-Tex membrane works excellently – even in rainy weather, the shoes keep my feet dry and don't cause overheating.
-
Top shelf shoes. Very durable and solid. They wick moisture perfectly, look excellent and have an attractive colour. The materials are of the highest quality. What is most important to me, they are not made in Taiwan or China.
-
My husband has been wearing these shoes for a few days and is very satisfied. He uses the shoes every day and has wide feet. Even at -15°C during long walks in the snow, his feet stay warm. Highly recommended. Lightning-fast shipping – I ordered the shoes one day at 11 pm, and the courier delivered them the next day at 9 am.
-
The shoes are very comfortable right from the first wear. I have been using them for about a month now, and they work great. I chose the size using the size chart available on the website, measuring the length of my foot – they fit perfectly. The shoes are lightweight and did not require breaking in.
