A new generation of operation, exercise or mission boot. The LOWA Combat Boot Mk.2 GTX, with its comfortable dual-density PU midsole and arch support, offers a great deal of comfort for long tabs, yomps, rucks or marches. Its certified ankle protection system with PORON technology makes the boot the perfect choice for soldiers, airmen, sailors, police, security and private military contractors. The LOWA Combat is suitable for moderate, wet and cold climates and is designed to ensure stability, durability and comfort with minimal seam construction. The water-repellent, tear-resistant smooth full-grain leather with LOWA RAYFLECT technology is an additional new technology for some boots in the LOWA Professional collection.

These LOWA boots are EN ISO 20347 certified and are classified as occupational footwear. This means that at the very least they can be expected to offer a reasonable degree of protection against oil, water, and penetrative forces. Occupational footwear such as these also provide a degree of anti-static resistance and come with shock-absorbing heels as standard. In addition to these basic qualities, wearers benefit from a new Vibram Vanguard outsole and GORE-TEX Professional Performance Comfort Footwear membrane.

The avoidance of unnecessary stitches, minimal seams and leather or material overlaps (thanks to the use of large leather pieces in constructing the upper) reduces the possibility of pressure points, hotspots, etc., and enhances comfort.

The Vibram Vanguard sole meets the highest anti-slip standards. Slip protection depends primarily on the design and rubber compound of the outsole. The LOWA Combat Boot Mk.2 GTX provides optimal slip protection on slick, wet and oily surfaces, as well as good grip on terrain. What's more, the VIBRAM sole is resoleable.

Ankle protection is particularly important in the military and police sector and for work in rough terrain. The LOWA Combat Boot Mk.2 GTX is equipped with high-performance protection of the ankle area against injuries caused by external impact. The protection of the inner and outer ankles is ensured by a PORON padding in the affected area, a material characterised by particularly high shock-absorption.

The two-zone lacing system means the forefoot and upper have their own separate adjustable lacing zones. As a result, the boot can be individually adapted to the anatomy of the foot and laced in different ways for ascents and descents.

The 100% polyurethane (PU) midsole has very good cushioning properties, is light­weight and functionally flexible. The GORE-TEX membrane is permanently waterproof and perfect for fluctuating temperatures.

The LOWA Combat Boot Mk.2 GTX is equipped with an exchangeable footbed for optimal individual adjustment and, in combination with the orthopaedic insoles ErgoPad work:x and ErgoPad work:h from BAUER­FEIND, is certified and approved for use as occupational footwear in accordance with DIN EN ISO 20347:2012
