Ranger III GTX® Video
Nubuck Leather Upper
Robust and durable to extend the life of your boots. It is also open pored for breathability while remaining fully waterproof.
Gore-Tex® Lining
Allows for moisture and sweat to escape while preventing water from entering from the outside.
C4 Tongue
Reduces pressure on the instep to prevent hotspots and blisters while allowing for improved flex and comfort.
X-Lacing® Stud
Reduces tongue movement and prevents pressure and blisters from forming.
Roller Eyelets
Allows for quick and easy lacing with minimal friction.
Medium Flex Stabilizer
Provides sturdy underfoot support while retaining forefoot flex.
Polyurethane (PU) Midsole
PU midsoles do not deform under heavy packloads so you can carry more without compromising weight and flexibility.
SPS System
Optimises foot stability to provide added comfort when walking. This system corrects gait by reducing pronation and supination (feet rolling inwards or outwards).
Vibram® Natural Outsole
Provides good grip on diverse terrain and allows you to ascend and descend with ease in challenging terrain. This outsole is resolable.
Invest In Your Comfort
You invest a lot of time, money and effort in your outdoor adventures, so it makes sense that you invest in the most comfortable, durable footwear you can find.
This is my 5th pair of Lowa’s and once again write out of the box they fit brilliantly only 10 k’s to break them in then went did as 70 km , five day trick up in the South Island hills with a 20 kg pack, one of the most comfortable boots I have worn , right up there with my Tibet's and Z8s .
There’s a Lowa for everything.

Sturdy and Comfortable
Did 25km the first weekend wearing them and they were comfy as straight off the bat.. Good solid boots but a bit lighter and more flexible than my Tibets.
