"Absolutely great pair of boots. I purchased these in the fall of 2004 and haven't regretted them yet. I once owned a pair of La Sportiva hiking shoes, and the comfort didn't compare. These Lowa's are very comfortable. I went with this brand because a buddy of mine swore up and down on the comfort of his Lowa Renegade II's."

"I am over 65 and still do a lot of solo off-road milage both in New Zealand and Europe. I have a large, low volumn foot which causes me a great deal of trouble when it comes time to buy new boots. My GTXs are the best boot I've ever worn.

I walked the Camineo Santiago last year from St."

"I have made two medium length hikes with them and may buy a second pair for the future now. They go through water, up steep inclines and handled a lot of toe jambing downhills without any damage to foot."

"I actually just got these boots and haven't had a chance to hike in them yet. However, out of the box they seem quite comfortable though a little tight in the toe box. I wear a thin liner sock and a thick wool hiking sock and the boots feel a little tight across the front of the foot."
