LOWA Boots To Wear In Winter
Many LOWA military and tactical boots have been designed to provide a safe marriage between the elements of winter and the integrity of leather boots. Read on to learn of a variety of Leather LOWA Military Boots that will see you striding through this winter with comfort and ease.
LOWA Mountain Boots
Utilising a specific combination of materials, LOWA Mountain Boots excel in challenging terrain over long periods of time. The full-grain leather used to make ensure that they’re resilient and durable throughout cold and wet months. The tight grain of this leather prevents moisture from seeping through and causing the wearer any issues. Another benefit of this leather is that it ages in an aesthetically pleasing way, developing a patina over the years (as long as the leather is properly maintained over time)
LOWA Combat Boots
LOWA Combat Boots share many aspects with the LOWA Mountain Boot, one of the few chief differences being that the LOWA Combat Boot features a taller leg shaft for extra support in difficult terrain. However they share a key similarity along with many LOWA Military and Tactical Boots, in that they utilise GORE-TEX® for their inner lining, creating another layer of defence against wet and cold. This high-performance material is waterproof and windproof, ensuring that the wearer is kept completely dry in rain and snow without sacrificing comfort. Lightweight and breathable, it allows sweat to be drawn out, thereby preventing chafing and tenderness. Both LOWA Combat and Mountain boots have what it takes to brave cold wet months of Winter.
LOWA R-6 Boots
The LOWA R-6 is a tactical boot that also make use of full-grain leather and GORE-TEX® Carbon membranes lending to complete protection from moisture and wind while maintaining breathability. Suitable to both urban and natural landscapes, these boots have an added advantage of tackling ice with ease thanks to a specially designed sole unit profile which have also been designed to be self-cleaning so that they don’t lose their grip over time.
LOWA Ranger GTX Thermo Boots
The LOWA Ranger GTX Thermo boot provides the ultimate protection against the cold. Dubbed the ‘baby Mountain Boot’ due to many similarities, this boot suits hikers and mountaineers as well as meeting military specifications. This boot gives an extra dose of warmth due to the addition of a Primaloft 200g lining. This popular insulation uses small polyester fibres which are highly compressible and water resistant, providing excellent insulation for its weight.
Supporting LOWA Boots Throughout Winter
Remember that in addition to boots, choosing a suitable pair of socks can add an extra layer of comfort and protection from the cold, filling in the gaps. Bridgedale socks, for instance, are made using a variety of materials that can support LOWA Boots in winter. Bridgedale WoolFusion socks provide durable performance design for mountains and cold environments and dense cushioning for extra warmth. While Bridgedale CoolFusion socks provide protection using T2 double-loop anti-compression technology and venting via mesh side and underfoot panels.
There is also the option to pick up Berghaus Yeti Gaiters, which protect LOWA Military Boots using GORE-TEX® fabric to offer an additional layer of waterproof and windproof protection for your boots. The Berghaus Yeti Gaiter is a perfect fit for the LOWA Mountain Boot, and with Bridgedale socks thrown in as a final measure you will have no worries traversing the harshest terrains and elements winter can throw at you.
