The LOWA Renegade Evo GTX Lo Hiking Shoe gives our feet the best in weather protection and traction while ensuring the fit is comfy and nimble for long, technical trails. Thorny brush and jagged rocks try in vain to shred the tough leather uppers that remain supple for easy walking strides, while the sticky Vibram lugs chew up the terrain and promise purchase on the ups and downs along the way. Equipped with a GORE-TEX membrane, this pair shuts out nipping winds and sudden showers yet still lets our feet breathe to keep blister-inducing sweat from cutting our hike short.
