Year 1997: while the epic “Titanic” dominates movie theaters around the world, Tony Blair celebrates his election success in England, and Schalke 04 wins the UEFA Cup, there is also an air of change at LOWA. Werner Riethmann and his development team were working on a new production method for hiking shoes, with the goal of making them much lighter. The typical feature of running and leisure shoes became the basis for a new way of making hiking shoes. For the first time, LOWA made a shoe whose sole was not glued, but directly injected. Thus the RENEGADE model was born.
RENEGADE GTX MID Ws features a Vibram sole. The Italian manufacturer has been one of the market leaders in high-quality soles for several years now.
Guaranteed protection even when it rains or snows heavily: RENEGADE GTX MID Ws features a GORE-TEX membrane. The innovative technology ensures maximum waterproofing and breathability.
The membrane is waterproof, you can be on the safe side. No matter what your next adventure: thanks to GORE-TEX technology your feet will stay pleasantly dry, that's a promise.
The breathability of GORE-TEX shoes has been optimized, so they offer maximum comfort even during strenuous activities. Water does not penetrate the shoes, while vapor is able to escape from the billions of pores in the membrane GORE-TEX
