Lowa Size Guide

Fit recommendation

For the best possible fit, we recommend starting with your normal UK boot size, but also check out the expert size recommendation on the product page. However, if you are unsure, get in contact with us, or visit a store to get your feet measured

The below can be used as a guide if you're not sure on your boot size, and need guidance with where to start - it is best to measure the length of your foot when stood up. Due to individual foot shapes or preferences in fit this recommendation may vary. We also offer some boots in wide and narrow fitting options.

LOWA boots are made in UK sizes (not EU) and are true to size. Most people buy their normal footwear size, however, we do offer free returns for peace of mind if the fit isn't quite right.

Specifications

The new Explorer GTX Lo is the latest trekking shoe taking technology and construction from hiking boots down to walking shoes. The most exciting element of the Explorer is the new sole, designed in conjunction with Vibram, offering 5mm rubber lugs married to a new advanced Litecell PU layer, offering best-in-class cushioning. This new sole makes the Explorer instantly comfortable from new (no breaking in), but is designed so they can also be re-soled in the future. The upper of the shoe has a soft suede with down to the toe lacing, allowing you to taylor the fit to your foot shape easily. A rubber and TPU toe and heel cap offer scuff protection, and a full Gore-Tex lining keeps your feet dry.
