I bought these shoes and took them on a jungle trek during a downpour – the path turned into a stream, but after an hour of walking my feet stayed dry, even when wading through 5 cm deep water. The shoes are also very comfortable and lightweight. These are the best shoes I've ever owned.
Lowa Z-6N GTX C Shoes - Black
Black tactical footwear made from nubuck leather with a thickness of 2.2 mm and durable Cordura. The ankle support system, combined with a soft collar, effectively protects the foot and ankle joint from injuries. This model is perfect both as versatile urban footwear and for use in uniformed services such as the military, police, or border guards.
Breathable Gore-Tex membrane
The construction of the boots is based on water-resistant materials. The applied Gore-Tex MS Light Rock membrane ensures moisture (sweat) is wicked away while preventing water from penetrating the interior of the footwear.
Climate Control Insole
The Climate Control insole maintains optimal dryness inside the boots, reducing the risk of blisters.
Lowa Tactical Z Trac Sole, PU MONOWRAP Sole
The external sole Lowa Tactical Z Trac meets the SR:A standard for slip resistance. Thanks to its profiled tread, it provides excellent grip on various surfaces.
The PU MONOWRAP technology makes the footwear lightweight while providing excellent support and stabilization for the foot, protecting it against shocks. The central insert in the sole is specifically designed to protect against abrasion during fast-rope descents. Reinforcements on the toes and heels, including an extended rubber outsole, increase resistance to mechanical damage.
Quick lacing
Low-profile metal eyelets for laces enable quick and efficient lacing, meeting the requirements for parachute jump boots. Loops at the back facilitate putting on and taking off the footwear.
EN ISO Certification
The footwear is certified to comply with EU standards for personal protective equipment (EN ISO 20347: 2012).

These shoes are truly top class – perfect for autumn and winter. They handle bad weather excellently and are very comfortable and warm. The well-designed tread is particularly noteworthy.
-
Very durable shoes, used for half a year in tough conditions. They are not afraid of thorny bushes, wet grass, or crossing water. The leather has no scratches at all. The only downsides are the lack of ventilation, which can cause your feet to sweat on warmer days, and after cleaning, the shoes darken and lose their original colour. Besides that, these are durable and highly recommended shoes.
-
Exceptionally durable, they effectively protect against injuries even in very tough and demanding conditions. They work brilliantly during service, mountain expeditions, survival situations, or everyday use regardless of the weather. The Lowa brand is synonymous with top quality – I recommend them to anyone who expects professionalism. Worth every penny spent.
-
These shoes are definitely worth recommending. I use them both daily and for work, in various weather conditions. They deal very well with wet grass and water and haven't leaked so far. Very comfortable and provide excellent foot stability. I highly recommend them.
-
Solid, durable shoes. They provide stability on all surfaces, no matter how difficult the terrain. The ankle is well protected and the sole is robust and long-lasting. I definitely recommend them.
-
I rate Lowa shoes very positively – they are carefully made, provide good foot stability and do not cause excessive sweating. The nubuck leather used is of high quality and offers good protection from the elements.
-
This is another pair of shoes I'm testing, and I don't understand where all the positive opinions about them come from. Compared to the Garmont Nemesis GTX, both the 4.2 and 6.2 versions, the Garmonts are much more comfortable (on my foot they feel like trainers). As for the Lowa Z-6N GTX C - Black, they are rather average. My feet sweat a lot in the Lowas, they're quite stiff (when putting them on it feels as if you're putting your foot in a box), and they only become comfortable after a longer time once they've been broken in. I'm most interested in the durability of the sole, as in the Garmonts the sole wears down very quickly and it's hard to get half sizes. I think the store price of 950 PLN is far too high for the quality received. My rating – not worth spending that amount. (review based on daily use during service)
-
I highly recommend these shoes – they are made with great attention to detail and high-quality leather, which guarantees their durability and an attractive look. Additionally, they have an anti-slip sole, which increases safety and comfort during use.
-
The shoes look great and seem very solid. I ordered size 41.5 according to the chart, but they were too tight for thick socks, so I had to return them. A shame, as they were supposed to be for winter. Now I'm waiting for size 42 in black and I'll definitely buy them as soon as they're available.
-
I returned the shoes because the size was too small. Still, they are solid, outdoor shoes made of thick leather. They will perform well both in mud and on wet surfaces, water is not a problem for them. In tough off-road conditions, a regular Zephyr GTX can't compare. Definitely worth recommending.
-
Gentlemen, these shoes are fantastic – regular GTXs are like slippers in comparison. I wore my previous pair every day for 5 years until the soles wore out; then a cobbler glued on new ones and they lasted another two years. The interior of the boots remained in perfect condition, which is why I decided to buy the same pair again. I highly recommend the Z-6N GTX.
-
Excellent shoes, made from high quality materials. Right after putting them on, you can head straight for the trail without worrying about blisters thanks to the fit of the shoes. This is already the second time I have chosen Lowa shoes. My previous model, the Lowa Zephyr GTX, is still performing great and shows no signs of wear. Highly recommended.
-
Shoes are much better than earlier models, especially in terms of finish. They are breathable, lightweight and, above all, extremely comfortable. Highly recommended!
