Reviews & Ratings for Lowa Tibet GTX Hi Backpacking Shoes - Men's — 12 reviews — Page 1

Best hunting/backpacking boots out there, very comfortable and a workhorse. Higher quality all around compared to most, especially with the lacing system. My feet are size 12 and wear same size in this boot and there is plenty of room in the toe box. Use Obenauf’s on the leather and they will last forever. Have worn 8” Tibet’s for years without fail but wanted a little more off trail support so finally went with the Hi version thanks to the sale. Stiffer sole compared to most hikers and cheaper boots. Once you get used to them you will never go back. Wear year round in the woods of the Inland Pacific NW with correct socks.

The last pair I purchased lasted three dall sheep hunts, three Arizona deer hunts and multiple other hunts without one issue. Out of the box there a dream. Will buy another pair as soon as these wear out.

Recieved the boots and they fit great,after wearing them around for a few days they are starting to get broke in. The boots felt stiff but now are getting toe flex and starting to feel like some great hiking boots. They will get put thru the test this fire season

Got in 11.5 US, fits well, this boot has excellent heel pocket tall enough to keep most grass seed out,. I live in northern AZ rugged terrain, boulders creeks, best boots I have ever worn. Think I’m going to stick with Lowa

Very pleased with boots purchased from you at the absolutely best price.

Please remove me from your web based Ad Choices--I get your ads popping up everywhere I go on web searches and it is very annoying. I would like to think if I want to buy something from you I can go to your website and not have to be persistently reminded from "pop-up" ads that your company is still around. Doubly stupid--most of those pop-up ads from Campsaver through Ad Choices are advertising the boots I purchased! Does that make any sense???

Thank you

Best boot I ever had for doing line work great on the ground and on the pole

These boots appear to be sturdy and well made. They fit well and are comfortable in rough terrain. It is difficult to give an accurate evaluation until the boots have been used for at least a year.

I bought these for my recent elk hunt and I can honestly say I've never had support like this before. I usually have a hard time finding boots that fit correctly as I need a 12.5 wide and although they don't have a wide, the boot last is actually wide enough for my fat feet. The biggest noticeable difference for me was in side-hilling. I've always noticed pain/ discomfort while doing this, now I can side-hill all day long. Also packed out half an elk in my pack, roughly 100 lbs about 5 miles. While there's not much you can do to make that task comfortable these boots did there job excellent. Allowing each step to feel stable and planted. I also have a high arch so knowing this I should have opted for better insoles but the stock ones performed acceptable. The boots took a little while to break in as any quality boot should. I would say maybe 10-15 miles walking on flat ground before I started hiking in them. Overall couldn't ask for a better boot, especially for the price. I got them on sale for around $300, which was $170 cheaper than kenetreks which were the closest comparable boot I tried. Plus lowa takes care of you by rebuilding the lowers for a reasonable price. So overall I think I'm a lowa customer for life. Can't wait to get the insulated hunters to try out in the late season.

7th pair of Lowas and second pair of Tibets. Never had a Lowa I didn't like, except for my Renegades, which use thin leather, light stitching and simply didn't hold up very long. My Rangers and their burlier cousins, the Tibets, are excellent for hiking in all conditions. I will buy more Tibets when my two pairs wear out. Very highly recommended. Also have some Lowa Cristallo mountaineering boots, but these aren't as flexible or comfortable as my Tibets for general hiking.

The boots fit exactly to size and the support is excellent can't wait to get them out on the mountain !
