Lowa Tibet GTX Boots - Sepia/Slate
Waterproof trekking shoes in Sepia/Slate color, featuring a lightweight and sturdy construction, equipped with a breathable Gore-Tex membrane and a soft lining. Made from durable nubuck leather, they are exceptionally resistant to bending due to their flexible structure.
Gore-Tex membrane
The modern membrane Gore-Tex effectively protects the footwear from getting wet, ensuring complete breathability and wind resistance. The Flexifit upper construction effectively stabilizes the ankle while providing freedom of movement. The anatomically designed, padded C4-Tongue evenly distributes pressure and offers high comfort during walking.
Vibram Masai sole, Climbing Zone area
The flexible and abrasion-resistant rubber Vibram Masai sole offers excellent cushioning. Its non-slip texture and deep tread provide excellent grip, even when climbing difficult, rocky terrain. The tread is designed to automatically shake off any debris collected in the sole while walking.
Additionally, the sole allows for the adjustment of various types of crampons, and the specially positioned Climbing Zone area with a flat profile at the front facilitates tackling challenging sections on the trail.
The midsole made of flexible polyurethane (PU) foam provides maximum support for the foot, stabilizing and protecting it from impacts. The shoes are equipped with anatomically designed inserts that effectively wick moisture away from the skin's surface, increasing comfort for the user.
2 Zone Lacing system
The dual-zone lacing system 2 Zone Lacing allows for individualized tightening of the lower and upper parts of the shoe, ensuring optimal fit. Eyelets have I-Lock hooks that prevent lace movement, and small rollers minimize the risk of chafing. An additional hook on the tongue (X-Lancing) stabilizes it vertically and horizontally, ensuring stability and comfort during hikes.

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.
Flexifit is a technology that uses an upper design that, by repositioning the shoe's eyelets and using a flexible lacing hook, increases ankle mobility and provides greater heel comfort when the shoe is flexed.
C4-Tongue is an anatomically contoured tongue in the shoe, which, combined with asymmetrical padding, ensures even pressure distribution in the shoe. This solution centralizes the position of the tongue and improves the flexible fit to the leg, translating into high comfort when walking.
Vibram Masai is a type of abrasion-resistant rubber sole, distinguished by very good grip on any surface, thanks to the self-cleaning tread design. The shape of the sole is contoured and prevents slipping, and the Climbing Zone located at the tip makes it easier to climb rock steps.
Climbing Zone is a flat, low-profile zone in the front of the shoe's sole covering the toes, usually made of high-grip rubber. It allows a better feel for the ground and enables the foot to be placed safely on smaller steps or stones, by shifting pressure to the big toe.
2 Zone Lacing is a special two-zone lacing system for shoes, allowing the laces to be tied separately at the bottom and top of the shoe for the best fit.
I-Lock is an innovative lacing system consisting of self-locking loops that hold the laces in their original position and small rollers that minimize the risk of abrasion. It reduces the possibility of the shoe unwinding on its own and allows for a better fit.
X-Lancing is a technology that uses an additional attachment point on the tongue in the lacing system to stabilize it both vertically and horizontally. This ensures optimal tongue placement and stability during use.
