The Tibet GTX has a Gore-Tex lining that is very breathable and waterproof. The shoe therefore keeps your feet dry and offers a good foot climate during your outdoor activities.
The hiking shoe also has a Hard Shank, a very sturdy insole that offers a lot of stability during trekking tours (in the mountains) with a heavy pack.
Climbing Zone makes climbing easy. This is due to the flat support of the big toe in the sole structure and an improved slip resistance.
In addition, the men’s mountaineering shoe is equipped with a C4-Tongue: a specially anatomically shaped tongue. This promotes flexibility and wearing comfort and prevents pressure points.
The laces of the Tibet GTX have the X-Lacing design that secures the tongue of the shoe. This prevents shifts and thus rubbing and pressure points. With this way of lacing, the pressure distribution is not placed on the heels but close to the tongue. This increases the walking comfort of the shoe.
Another handy lacing feature is the 2-Zone-Lacing. These are separately adjustable lacing zones at the forefoot (last) and the shaft of the shoe. This way you can adjust the mountain shoe to your own foot for a perfect fit and comfort. The I-Lock is a patented and exclusive Lowa clamping hook for very comfortable fixing of the 2-Zone-lacing.
Furthermore, the Tibet GTX features the Minimal Seams design: that means that the number of seams in the shoe is limited to prevent friction and pressure points.
Finally, the sole can be resoled: if the sole is very worn, we can have it resoled. Then you get a completely new sole that is exactly the same as the original. Then you can enjoy your shoes longer and you don’t have to break in a new shoe, for example.
