I bought these shoes for work in service. This is my first pair of Lowa shoes. So far, after trying them on at home, they are comfortable, although I haven’t had a chance to test them outdoors yet – they seem very promising. The materials used are of very high quality. I’ll be able to say more about their durability in a year or two, or after my next purchase. Size 44 turned out to be too loose, so I exchanged them for 43.5 – which was perfect for a 27.5 cm foot. Shipping and returns via militaria.pl were very fast and hassle-free. I recommend them!

Lowa footwear is an excellent choice for those seeking durable and lightweight tactical footwear, suitable for both urban environments and outdoor activities.
Suede leather and Cordura
The use of durable suede leather and breathable Cordura fabric guarantees longevity and comfort.
Breathable and waterproof GORE-TEX membrane
Thanks to the Gore-Tex membrane, the boots offer full waterproof protection while efficiently wicking away moisture. This advanced technology keeps the foot dry even in harsh weather conditions, making the footwear ideal for variable climates. The removable insole further helps maintain dryness inside the boot.
Lowa X-TRAC Military sole, slip protection
For stability on challenging terrain, the Lowa X-TRAC Military cushioned rubber outsole with deep treads is used. The Slip Resistance technology prevents slipping on wet and slippery surfaces, making these boots perfect for uneven grounds.
The Lowa Monowrap midsole provides additional support, stabilizing the foot and protecting it from impacts, increasing comfort during extended wear and reducing the risk of injury.
Ankle protection and additional foot support
The ankle support system with a soft collar effectively prevents injuries, and additional reinforcements around the toes and heels, combined with the molded rubber outsole layer, offer extra protection in critical areas.

Cordura is a material woven from durable nylon fibers, developed by DuPont. The structure of the material provides lightness and abrasion resistance, as well as weather resistance. Due to its properties, Cordura is widely used in tactical equipment.
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.
X-Trac Military is a special type of outsole, which, thanks to its design and rubber construction, features anti-slip properties. It provides protection against slipping on slippery, wet and oily surfaces, while maintaining adequate grip.
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.
Slip Resistance is a technology used in the shoe's sole, which is highly slip-resistant thanks to its special design and rubber compound. It provides slip protection on slippery, wet and oily surfaces, as well as traction on varied surfaces.

Very good boots for when you need to walk a lot and don't want your feet to "die". They are noticeably lighter than classic heavy boots, but still provide good ankle support and stability on uneven ground. The sole is grippy, and you feel more confident walking on stones or gravel compared to most cheaper models. The GTX really helps on wet grass, in puddles, and in the rain—your feet stay dry much longer. Typical membrane nuances: with active movement in warm weather, breathability can be a bit less, so socks are half the comfort factor. Also, it's important to select a size with room for thicker socks, as your toes shouldn't be pressing at the front on descents. Overall, a very strong option for the field, mixed weather, the shooting range, and long hikes if you want comfort and reliability without extra weight.

I just received my shoes. Previously, I also ordered for a friend, and just like him, I am positively surprised by the quality and fit of the footwear. I immediately waterproofed them. I hope they will serve me for a long time because I really like them a lot.
-
I bought them for a friend because he asked – I had a discount, so they turned out cheaper. As soon as he unpacked them, he immediately said they are great and fit very well. We still need to see how durable they are and other things, but now I'm ordering them for myself too, because I've liked them for a long time and I want to have them!
-
Exceptional quality and comfort. The shoes fit perfectly to the ground and provide ankle stability, which is especially appreciated on demanding trails. Despite effective water protection, the feet remain well-ventilated. Definitely a premium product worth its price.
-
My first impressions are very positive. The shoes are extremely light, they hold the ankle well, and the lacing is well designed. At first, they seemed a bit narrow, but after two days of wearing them, they stretched out a lot and are now very comfortable. As for how durable they will be, I will find out over time, but I already recommend waterproofing them.
-
Exceptionally comfortable and solidly made. They provide excellent grip, solid ankle support, and a high level of comfort even during long walks. The material is breathable while effectively protecting against moisture—definitely a top-tier product.
-
The shoes were very comfortable; while walking, I felt like I had "sneakers on steroids" on my feet. After proper waterproofing, I didn't have major problems with them getting wet. However, for the price that Lowa asks for this model, I expected exceptionally durable footwear to last for many years. Unfortunately, they lasted with me only a little over a year. The sole completely fell apart—it detached from the rest of the shoe and cracked at the front, which allowed sand and small debris to get inside. I will remember them fondly, but I probably won't decide to buy them again.
-
Shoes that are already well known. They are lightweight, comfortable, and very durable. They provide excellent grip in various conditions. Your feet feel good in them, don't get tired, and can breathe freely.
-
The shoes are outstanding. They look great and seem sturdily made (although it's still too early to confirm that one hundred percent). They fit my feet perfectly right from the first time I put them on. I thought Monowrap was just a marketing gimmick, but I have to take that back – I've never had shoes this stable. The comfort is comparable to good sports shoes – they're neither too hard nor too soft, just perfect! They're warm, but at the same time, my feet don't overheat thanks to the effective membrane. The lace hook works smoothly, and the pocket for hiding the laces in the tongue is a brilliant idea. In summary, every zloty spent on this model was worth it.
-
The shoes are actually smaller than the MK1, it seems that they have a different sizing and at first they pinched me. Unfortunately, my feet sweat more in these than in the previous model, they are less comfortable and wear out faster. If I had to choose again, I would choose the earlier version. I have the model in desert color and those were the most comfortable shoes, but these are unfortunately just average.
-
The tactical boots are very comfortable, carefully made, and fit the foot perfectly. They provide excellent stabilization, while remaining flexible and comfortable even during prolonged wear. Additionally, lightning-fast shipping and quick delivery from the store. I definitely recommend them.
-
The Lowa Zephyr GTX MID MK2 boots are my top pick! They are very lightweight, extremely comfortable, and great both for hiking and everyday use. They provide excellent traction, breathe well, and are completely waterproof. The craftsmanship is also of a very high standard. I think they're worth their price.
-
I definitely recommend these shoes. They are well made, lightweight, and very comfortable, especially on hot days. They're worth buying. I hope they will last a long time.
-
The shoes are comfortable from the very first wear and fit perfectly on the foot. The lacing system is well-designed, provides stability, and eliminates looseness. The footwear is lightweight and breathable, and with the right socks, your feet won't get sweaty inside. They fit comfortably on the foot, are made from high-quality materials, and the lacing system works perfectly. The upper fits well above the ankle, providing stability when descending. I definitely recommend this purchase—it's worth it!
