Trekking shoes for paths, trails and summits

Trekking means freedom. It means setting off - without knowing what awaits you around the next bend. Some paths are easy, others challenge you. But every step takes you further out into nature and into a feeling that you can only find outdoors.

Regardless of whether you are conquering long-distance hiking trails, gaining metres in altitude or spontaneously discovering new paths:
Good trekking shoes give you confidence and support. They protect your feet from moisture, scree and long days with a lot of luggage. And that's exactly why we at LOWA have been developing our trekking boots for over 100 years - robust, comfortable and made for your seasons. Because trekking doesn't begin and end with summer. With the right footwear, your adventure can begin at any time.

The new LOWA® EXPLORER - our highlight of the year

The LOWA® EXPLORER stands for the trekking feeling of today: lighter, more modern and at the same time stable enough for real tours. With a grippy sole, balanced cushioning and weatherproof materials, it accompanies you on trails, mountain paths and long stages - in every season.

  • Behind the scenes of the LOWA EXPLORER

    How is a trekking boot made that will reliably accompany you for kilometres? The following making-of video shows you how much craftsmanship, experience and passion go into the EXPLORER - from the initial material tests to the final finishing touches in production.

Your trekking companion for the whole year

Whether light and comfortable or particularly stable - we support you wherever the terrain becomes more demanding and every step counts.

Paths that take you further

    Long stages & long-distance hiking trails

    Travelling for several days changes your view of nature - and of yourself. Trekking shoes with good cushioning and stable support help you to walk comfortably for many hours, even when the terrain varies and your rucksack gets heavier.

    High trails & mountain trails

    Where the ground becomes uneven and the metres in altitude increase, you need sure-footedness. A grippy sole and good ankle support give you the confidence to stay focussed even on challenging terrain and enjoy the path ahead of you.

    Trekking from spring to winter

    Every season has its own rhythm. Loamy spring paths, warm summer days, golden autumn colours and clear winter air - good trekking shoes accompany you through all conditions without you having to compromise.

  • What makes a trekking shoe

    A good trekking shoe offers you more than just protection. It supports your muscles on long days, cushions steps with heavy luggage, protects you from the wet and ensures safety on a wide variety of surfaces.

    Stability is important so that you are safe on the move, cushioning that relieves pressure on your joints, grip that gives you support even on slippery passages, weather protection that accompanies you all year round and a fit that adapts to your foot and avoids pressure points

  • Made in Europe

    We at LOWA have been producing in Europe for over a century - with a wealth of experience, precision craftsmanship and a quality standard that makes every pair of shoes a reliable companion.
    The majority of our trekking models are still produced directly at our headquarters in Jetzendorf, Bavaria. These trekking shoes can even be resoled so that they can accompany you on even more trails.
