Lowa Tibet LL

Technologies and manufacturing processes

• VIBRAM MASAI

  The TIBET LL has a CLIMBING ZONE. This is a flat construction of the front sole area, which allows for easy climbing. The high-performance VIBRAM MASAI sole is optimally designed for use in alpine terrain. The "Climbing Zone" at the toe of the sole enables precise stepping on steep rock. In addition, the cleat arrangement ensures that dirt is released from the sole when walking. On the other hand, the striking heel ensures walking comfort, especially on the descent.

• TWO ZONE LACING

  Thanks to the two-zone lacing, the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws has forefoot and upper with separately adjustable lacing zones. This allows the shoe to be individually adapted to the anatomy of the foot and laced differently for uphill and downhill walking.

• MINIMAL SEAMS

  The FERROX GTX LO Ws avoids seams and material overlaps by using large-area upper parts. This reduces possible pressure points, which has a positive effect on wearing comfort.

• I-LOCK

  Simply tighten and fix: To simplify lacing, LOWA has developed a special clamp hook for the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws. This allows lacing in two zones. After the lacing has been tightened in the lower area of the shoe, the lace can be blocked via this clamping hook. By simply pressing the hook upwards, the clamping is released and the instep lacing can be loosened.

• ROLLER EYELETS

  To ensure that the laces run flexibly and smoothly through the eyelets, small balls in the metal loops of the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws minimize friction.

• X-LACING

  So the tongue sits where it belongs - without slipping and pressure points: With the X-LACING technology, this is easily possible with the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws. The special lacing fixes the tongue both vertically and horizontally. Since the lacing is thereby independent of the individual height of the instep, this construction is ideally suited for every foot. Due to this lacing technology, the pressure of the laces is no longer transferred only to the hooks, but flat to the entire tongue.

• FLEXFIT®

  If the upper of a hiking boot can be bent slightly, the foot can roll better. This saves energy, especially when walking uphill, and provides noticeable comfort. For this reason, LOWA has incorporated a flexible zone and a so-called "Lace Loop" in the area of the arch of the foot in the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws. This refers to the offset of the eyelet and the use of a flexible deep draw hook, which improves the heel fit and facilitates flexion.

• C4-TONGUE

  With this special construction of the tongue, the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws is noticeably more comfortable to wear. For example, the tongue has thicker padding on the outside of the foot and a soft finish at the top. This asymmetrical padding provides effectively coordinated support in different areas of the foot. Furthermore, to accommodate the anatomy of the feet, the cutouts for the ankle areas are higher on the inside than on the outside. In addition, a flexible flex insert is integrated on the inside of the foot.

• Basket crampons

  The TIBET SUPERWARM GTX Ws is suitable for "strap-on crampons". These are lightweight crampons for mountaineering and approach shoes that do not have a front or rear sole edge. Flexibility Basket crampons are light and flexible, and thus do not completely hinder the rolling of the foot. Therefore, they are suitable for light alpine tours that have little combination terrain and rock contact. Suitable for numerous models Basket crampons are suitable for shoes that do not have a front or rear sole edge. They therefore fit a wide range of mountaineering and trekking boots. Easy handling Basket crampons have a strap binding that is easy to use.

• LEATHER FEED

  In the LADY SPORT LL, the leather lining offers the foot a pleasant wearing comfort and a comfortable foot climate thanks to its natural properties. The adaptability, durability and ability to retain moisture make the leather lining the first choice for comfort-oriented outdoor enthusiasts. Cuddly material Lining leather is a very high-quality natural material that optimally hugs the foot. It adapts to the shape of the foot and thus offers a high level of wearing comfort. Optimal comfort in summer Shoes with leather lining are especially popular in summer, as they provide the best comfort here. Good moisture absorption Leather absorbs moisture very well and thus offers a pleasant wearing comfort. For multi-day tours, it should be noted that shoes with leather lining have a slightly longer drying time.

• Resole

  The shoe model CAREZZA GTX LO Ws has the possibility of resole.
