The footwear is a new and updated version of the classic shoe within the multifunctional footwear at Lowa. However, you will know that it’s a modern version thanks to the fresh derby cut and attractive details with contrasting colored fabric lining.

But Lowa Women’s Toro Evo GTX Mid Hiking Boot is more than meets the eyes, as less functional features of the classic model were replaced with better parts. The patented low mono wrap frame is excellent for foot control, whereas the straightly injected midsole (made with two TPU elements) will give superior padding on all trails. The structure will create lateral support, which increases stability.

The boots will stay snug to your foot but remain highly flexible and multifunctional. Versatility is one of the best assets, as you can take the shoes when hiking and at work or on any other outdoor experiences.

The boots are made with modern leather so that you may use them for a very long time. The break-in period will be very short, for sure, thanks to the nubuck/split leather. The lining is glove leather and textile in the forefoot, keeping your feet dry and warm all year round.

The midsole is light and thin for superior flexibility and impressive rebound, support underfoot, and stability. These features turn Lowa Women’s Toro Evo GTX Mid Hiking Boot a perfect example of how fitness style mixes perfectly with traditional hiking.

The double-injection Dynapu midsole supports the foot without affecting the flexibility, and the ATC medium stabilizer is very useful. The build of the boots keeps the heel in place, reducing the efforts while hiking.

The comfort is improved with the cushioned tongue and collar, protecting the ankle while hiking. The risk of chafing is minor as the padding is breathable and allows sweat escape. The collar and tongue are higher in the front so that your ankle is protected but maintains freedom of movement.

As for the outsole, Lowa Women’s Toro Evo GTX Mid Hiking Boot comes with MultiTrac outsole with triangular lugs for moderate trails and continuous flexibility. It reduces fatigue and rolling gait too. The boots provide excellent grip and traction on various surfaces, but they will impress, especially off-trails.
