I will only wear...

Camel's Hump along the Vermont Long Trail

Through three quarters of the Long Trail in Vermont and a few of the Adirondacks....

My Lowa's have been no-maintenance and dependable. You get what you pay for. The comfort is superb and the durability outlasts that of many more expensive boots.

Maybe the style just happens to fit my foot perfectly but I will only wear Lowa's to hike and climb period.

Thank you Lowa.

Buy Lowas for Life

Scouting on the Continental Divide

Living in north west colorado can be very trying on boots.

I walk hundreds of miles scouting. During hunting season the continental divide has been known to produce snow and rain in the same hour!

My Ranger GTX handles these conditions flawlessly. Probably the best boot I have ever owned. Period. Not only are these boots perfect but the customer service is even better!

Buy any LOWA with confidence. Buy them for life...

9,000 Miles in my Lowa Boots

Recognize this place? You must be from the middle of nowhere, too.

By my estimation, I've put over 9,000 miles on my Lowa boots ~ in the last 4 months. Now, don't get too excited, I wasn't walking. Mostly my foot was pressed against a gas pedal ~ driving back and forth, staying close to a family that is falling apart at the seams. I guess it's just our year for such things.

As I was unpacking my car last night, I noticed I'd left town in my garden shoes. Though I had a big suitcase of clothing, I only packed that one pair of shoes.

I've become a bit of an evangelist for you, Lowa. I own your boots, your sandals, your snow boots. I even sleep in one of your t-shirts. I think they're the most comfy things I've ever worn. (The shoes, not the shirt.)

I'm a self-appointed expert because I've fallen prey to every sales pitch, in every catalog, when it comes to garden shoes. Problem is, they just don't cut it. Lowas do. They have the type of sole support that gets me through a long day and doesn't hurt when I'm stomping a shovel into hard ground. But, the coolest thing of all is how they have self-cleaning treads so mud just falls right off.

Anyhoo. I just wanted to send you my own personal love story. I know Lowas are not made specifically for gardening but they could be should be.

The View from Island Peak ~ Nepal

Hey, Lowa!
This is me near the narrow summit of Island Peak in Nepal.

Elevation 20,307 feet.

After weeks of bad weather this joint was as crowded as the local pub during happy hour! I had time to snap one quick pick and then step aside for other eager mountaineers.

Check out my Expedition 8000's. They got me to the top. Safe. Sound. Warm and comfy. Thanks Lowa.

Thanks, Folks!

Kalalau trail, Kauai, Hawaiian Islands

Hi Folks,

Just wanted to say thanks for such incredible service. I had a beloved pair of Lowa Trekkers that carried me safely and happily around the world several times over the course of 10 years; eventually they gave up the ghost on the Kalalau trail in Kauai, a fitting place to put such good friends to rest.

I contacted you guys asking about changes in boot manufacturing in those 10 years (the Trekkers fit my feet perfectly with no break-in!), and I got an e-mail back from the General Manager with the good news that the Trekkers were still made in the same shape, but that there were newer options available too.

I opted for something new, and was again walking on happy feet for another 3 years. At that point some of the stitching on the left inner ankle started to pull out; again I contacted you guys and within a couple of weeks had a new pair of *upgraded* boots, free of charge.

It's amazing in this day and age to find a company that A) makes such great products, B) is so responsive to customer service and C) stands behind what it makes.

Kudos, kudos and more kudos.

High Time for Feedback

Winter Hunting Expedition in Western Montana

After owning four pairs of your boots, I figure it's high time to give you some feedback.

I backpack and hunt some of the toughest country that can be found in the U.S, and work outdoors every day.

Lowa boots have been with me for the past six years on every adventure and every work day. They have kept my feet warm, dry and comfortable every step of every adventure.

Thank you for making such a great product. You have made me a customer for life.

P.S. These pictures are from last year's adventure in Western Montana. Negative 20 degrees (F) and your boots kept me going.

Keep Up the Great Work!

Zuoz, Switzerland Ski Resort

Dear Lowa,

In 2005, I bought your Women's Tibet GTX boots in Zuoz, Switzerland. The moment I slipped my feet into those boots they were like "slippers" with Vibram soles.

I asked the salesman to dispose of my old boots and I wore my new Lowas out of the store.

I have hiked all the high mountain peaks of the White Mountains in New England, including Mount Washington, every summer.

Mt. Washington, New Hampshire

And, while many of my friends worry about getting their feet wet and complain of blisters and hotspots, I don't bat an eye when I walk through a stream or feel the ankle support when scrambling on the granite peaks under a heavy pack in my home state of New Hampshire.

I will be buying a second pair come Spring 2012! These boots are everything when I think of German craftsmanship and design. Keep up the great work!

As Comfy as My Slippers

In the last 10 years I have worn Tempest II's, Klondike GTX's, and now Renegade II GTX Lo's.

I have just purchased my sixth pair of Lowas. Nothing else compares for comfort and performance. I have done many day trips in the white mountains, I hunt with them in the early fall and I hike several miles every day with my German Shorthair Pointers.

 They are as comfortable as a pair of slippers everytime I put them on. The waterproof Gore-Tex is a must-have for New Hampshire winters and spring seasons.

Thanks for a great product!!
