Lowa Lowa Renegade GTX Middelhoge Schoenen Heren, grijs 2023 EU 43,5 Trekking- & Wandelschoenen

The year of 1997: It was a time when the blockbuster film “Titanic” was showing in cinemas, Tony Blair was celebrating his election victory in the United Kingdom and the German football team Schalke 04 was revelling in its UEFA Cup championship. It was also a time of transformation at LOWA. Werner Riethmann and his development team were busy thinking about a new way to produce hiking boots and make them lighter in the process. The foundation for a new way to produce hiking boots was laid by the leisure-time and running area. For the first time in the company’s history, LOWA produced a shoe that was directly injected and not cemented – the RENEGADE was born. Vibram EVOThe RENEGADE GTX MID 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 VIBRAM EVO applies proven Vibram technology: multifunctional profile design with an optimal rubber compound for hikes performed on the widest range of terrains. Combined with the proven heel profile for pleasant descents. GORE-TEXGuaranteed weather protection, even in pouring rain and heavy snow: The RENEGADE GTX MID is equipped with a GORE-TEX membrane. The innovative technology delivers optimal waterproof protection and breathability. Double InjectionTo provide effective cushioning and improved comfort, the sole of the RENEGADE GTX MID is bonded to the upper in a technically demanding injection process. The upper boot is placed into a specially designed mould. Various layers of PU foam padding are then poured into it. In the process, the sole and upper are bonded together. Support FrameWith the LOWA MONOWRAP frame, the midsole of the RENEGADE GTX MID provides the very best comfort. This three-dimensional midsole design was developed by LOWA in 1995. The frame comfortably cradles the foot and support it when the shoe wearer ventures across uneven surfaces. The sole design is slightly raised for shoes with a SUPPORT FRAME. 2 Zone LacingThanks to the two-zone lacing system used in the RENEGADE GTX MID, 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.
