NOLS Grad's Review of Lowa Tibet GTX Backpacking Shoes - Men's
:
These boots carried my wide feet, 160+lbs body and 50+lbs backpack to some wet and steep off-trail and on-trail hikes at the Brooks Range / Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, AK, Denali NP, AK, Kenai Peninsula, AK, Kluane NP, Yukon, Dark Canyon, UT, Salmon River, ID and many other majestic places. They and knee-high gaiters kept my feet dry after wide and river crossings.
Great construction and quality materials for durability and comfort. Some folks may find them heavy, but I consider them heavy-duty that can handle a lot of adverse conditions! The rubber rands is one of the nice features to protect the lower leather from bumps and scratches.
I like how the lacing system gives me different ways to adjust to the terrains throughout the day.
I replaced the original insoles with Superfeet Trailblazers for better arch support.
I follow Lowa's boot care instructions and supplies to keep them in good conditions.
