As we all know, ordinary hiking boots do have their limitations. In such cases, an alternative needs to be found. An alternative like the resoleable trekking model, LAVENA EVO GTX Ws, a boot that brings stability, flexibility and comfort into perfect harmony. Its robust full grain leather and waterproof GORE-TEX lining ensure that your feet will remain reliably dry. Thanks to the two-zone lacing system with I-LOCK hooks, ROLLER EYELETS and X-LACING, you can adjust the fit of the trekking boot to meet your particular needs at that very moment. As an extra source of comfort, the boot is outfitted with an upper that includes a LOWA-FLEX® zone and a C4 shoe tongue that will remain firmly in place whilst you walk, thanks to its X-LACING system. This package of creature comforts is rounded out by a light toe spring to enhance rolling properties. Finally, the partially crampon-compatible deep tread Vibram outsole with CLIMBING ZONE in the toe box allows via ferrata, rock and ice routes to be conquered with ease.

The LAVENA EVO GTX Ws comes equipped with a Vibram sole. The Italian sole manufacturer has been one of the leading brands of high-quality soles for many years.
The performance sole VIBRAM ALP TRAC® NUMEN Ws is designed especially for alpine conditions. The large “Climbing Zone” on the sole tip enables wearers to move precisely as they manoeuvre their way up sheer rock faces. The stud arrangement ensures that any dirt that accumulates in the sole of the footwear will be shaken loose while the boot wearer is walking.
Guaranteed weather protection, even in pouring rain and heavy snow: The LAVENA EVO GTX Ws is equipped with a GORE-TEX membrane. The innovative technology delivers optimal waterproof protection and breathability.
Permanently waterproof
The membrane provides reliable waterproof protection. No matter what sort of adventure you may be planning, you can count on GORE-TEX technology to keep your feet pleasantly dry.
High breathability
Designed with optimal breathability in mind, GORE-TEX shoes provide pleasant comfort even during intense activities. Water cannot penetrate the footwear, and moisture produced inside the shoe escapes through billions of pores in the GORE-TEX membrane.
Windproof
The GORE-TEX membrane dependably fights off the wind and the weather. As a result, you can head off on a tour no matter what the weather is like.

“If all of my LOWA boots did not have GORE-TEX technology, I would have been in real trouble several times because water crossings and hikes through wet areas are what my hikes are all about.”
The year of 2023 marks a milestone in LOWA’s history. The shoemaker is celebrating its 100th anniversary. It is the perfect time to look back over the last 100 years and bring the company’s history to life.

Thanks to the two-zone lacing system used in the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws, the forefoot and upper have their own separately adjustable lacing zones. As a result, the shoe can be individually adapted to the anatomy of the foot and laced in different ways for ascents and descents.

“It is convenient being able to match your footwear with your activity and terrain with the aid of this twin-zone lacing system. My forefoot has to be held perfectly in place inside the boot, especially for descents. I need a bit more space on the upper.”

Anyone who returns home after a long hiking tour knows that feeling of gratitude. Gratitude for breathtaking days spent in the great outdoors, for spectacular moments and for snug boots that safely took the hiker up the mountains and back down again. Many hikers have a very special relationship with their hiking boots. They are something more than just another pair of shoes in the closet. They are more like a hiking partner and a real companion. For a few, they even become something that can only be described as friends. Hikers just can’t do without them. The boots fit like a glove and accompany us everywhere – as they should. Sometimes you wonder: What would the boots say if they could talk? What would they tell us? What have they seen?

Just pull tight and lock in place: To simplify the job of tying footwear, LOWA has developed a special type of fastening hook for the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws. Special feature: the system holds the laces in place in two different zones. Once the laces have been pulled tight in the lower area, they can be locked in place with the help of the fastening hook. Simply pressing the hook fastener upwards releases the locking action and the instep laces can be loosened.

Nature provides us with all sorts of unique opportunities to experience unforgettable adventures and enjoy very special moments. More and more people are making a conscious decision to get back in tune with nature. But the decision by more and more people to get back in tune with nature also results in a greater and greater impact on the environment. You hear words like “awareness” and “mindfulness” a lot in discussions about this trend – but what exactly do people mean when they use them? An example: The practise of taking your trash home with you after a tour now comes second nature to many people. Such steps, no matter how tiny they may seem, can be the key to a mindful and sustainable outdoor lifestyle. But if you look around outdoors, you will certainly see many places that certainly have room for improvement.

When LOWA sits down to develop its line of Alpine boots, the company consults with the best professional mountaineers in the German-speaking world. These ambitious mountain athletes know exactly what counts during extreme high-altitude tours, on via ferrata and during far-off expeditions. The LOWA PRO Team advises our specialists in the Development Department in its work to create footwear that perfectly meets the athletes’ needs. The result of this work is a new line that delivers top performance on the mountain. The models have become much more athletic and lighter. Over the past few years, a number of exceptional LOWA boots have been developed in the “performance” segment during countless meetings with athletes and testing events.

As a result, the tongue is located where it should be – without any slippage or pressure points: This is what X-LACING technology of the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws is all about. This special lacing system secures the tongue both vertically and horizontally. Because the lacing system gains independence from the height of the instep, the design is perfect for any type of foot. This technology ensures that the pressure of the laces is transferred not just to the hooks but to the tongue as well.

Feet can roll more effectively if the upper of a hiking boot can be easily bent. Such a feature saves energy when the wearer climbs hills and it provides real comfort in the process. For this reason, LOWA has integrated a flexible zone and a lace loop into this area for the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws. This involves repositioning the boot’s eyelets and using a flexible lace hook that improves heel comfort and facilitates bending.

The days are getting longer and warmer again. Slowly, the last traces of winter blues fade away and the desire for a new adventure rises. The hiking season is just around the corner.

To add flexibility to each eyelet of the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws, the lacing systems through which laces are threaded are affixed separately. These sections are made of soft leather trim or supple textile materials that prevent pressure points. Thanks to the flexible arrangement of the eyelets, the laces can be individually adjusted without producing any excessive pressure on specific areas. But the tongue maintains its optimum positioning.

The specially designed tongue of the LAVENA EVO GTX Ws substantially enhances comfort. The tongue includes extra padding for the outer portion of the foot, and the upper end of it is especially soft. This asymmetric padding provides effectively coordinated support to many areas of the foot. To take into account the foot’s anatomy, the recesses for the ankle area have also been placed higher on the inside than on the outside, and a flexible bending insert has been integrated into the inner side by the foot.

To ensure perfect fit, the lasts used for LAVENA EVO GTX Ws have been specially designed with the anatomy of women’s feet in mind. The last plays a key role in the ultimate fit of a boot. Women’s feet have less volume than men’s feet. As a result, the instep height and the ball area of these lasts have been altered.

Even better than ever before, the multifunctional outdoor shoe considers all facets of achieving a perfect fit, providing sufficient space for toes and creating a stylish appearance – without scrimping on any functionality.

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is like classic polyurethane in many ways. But it differs from it in one special aspect: the process used to produce it. As a result, TPU is more abrasion and slip resistant. It also has a very high degree of kink and tensile strength. Thanks to improved weather resistance, the qualities of a sole made from TPU are more constant even when temperatures fluctuate, an especially important aspect of our leisure-time winter models.
Polyurethane (PU) is a soft plastic that has very good cushioning properties and is usually used in the midsole as a result. Through the use of PU, the soles become lightweight and functionally flexible.
Polyester is synthetic plastic fibre made from crude oil. In chemical terms, it is a polymer that can be processed into many different materials. Thanks to its chemical flexibility, polyester is lightweight, dries quickly, does not shrink and has the highest levels of tear and abrasion resistance.
Viscoelastic latex foam is made of a remarkable polymer that lends a special form memory to the foam. Once body heat or pressure is applied to the viscoelastic foam, the foam adapts exactly to these particular contours. This feature equally distributes pressure and eases stress on the feet.
Mesh is a material that consists of many evenly spaced holes. It is usually made of polyester or nylon and basically a lattice-like material that is created by interwoven threads. Thanks to its special design, the man-made fibre is particularly permeable to air, has special moisture-regulating qualities and is easy to care for, breathable and crease-resistant.
Suede leather comes from the flesh side of the hide. It has a looser fibre structure, a quality that creates a velvety surface and a light pile. Suede leather is particularly durable and open-pored. Depending on the desired look, suede leather can remain untreated or be oiled or waxed.
