Hiking shoes are by definition not necessarily suited for everyday wear. Nevertheless, they are being worn more and more often in the city. What was previously considered stiff and excessive is in today’s urban lifestyle nearly the norm. The functional hybrid LOWA Locarno GTX LO Ws with a casual look is consciously heading off in a new direction, one in which it skilfully pulls off the balancing act between lifestyle and outdoor footwear. The trendy shoe shines in every way. The reduced LOWA Monowrap frame that optimally supports the foot and the cushioning mid-sole made of LOWA DynaPU create a complete, eye-catching look. “Lifestyle meets outdoor” – this sums up the essence of the functional models in the best possible way. With its urban trendsetters, LOWA once again provides a multifunctional solution for all sorts of activities for users’ shoe closets – no matter whether the footwear is destined for use in the mountains or downtown. Women's shoes.
• GORE-TEX Lining: Highly breathable, durably waterproof lining material. Keeps feet pleasantly dry and offers optimised climate comfort for a broad range of outdoor activities.
• MONOWRAP ® - To create optimal stability and provide perfect support to the foot, LOWA developed a new, three-dimensional design of the midsole in 1995. This frame is called LOWA MONOWRAP® and perfectly envelopes the foot, providing support where it is needed the most. The frame, like the rest of the sole, is made of polyurethane.
• Support Frame: A higher wrap web construction gives the user good support for off-trail and backcountry use
• Double Injection: Comfort and cushioning is further improved for specific uses with a complex injection-moulding process using various layers of PU-foam padding that are poured into a mould. During the process, the sole and upper are bonded together

• SOFT STABILIZER – Nylon joint-stabilizing element offers optimal support for recreational activity
• Dyna PU - The midsole is the heart of comfort, rolling properties and shoe cushioning. It is usually made from a foamed plastic. LOWA uses polyurethane (PU). The midsole consists of thousands of foam bubbles. The result is a material that is light, flexible and extremely durable. After every use, the material reverts back to its original position. LOWA has exclusively developed a special PU foam material that meets all cushioning, comfort and durability criteria: LOWA DynaPU®. The special feature: The material is extremely stable. It retains its stability and substance even when it is pressed together 1,000 times. As a result, the finished shoes will maintain their optimal cushioning ability even after you have walked many kilometers in them.
