The Lowa Explorer GTX Mid is a men’s mid-height hiking boot rated for the AB hike category, making it well suited for daylong treks and moderate multi-day routes. It’s built to give you ankle support and reliable performance as the trail shifts beneath your feet.
The suede and mesh upper paired with a Gore-Tex lining keeps out water without stifling airflow, while the Vibram Rock Trac sole delivers traction on wet rocks and loose soil. With a regular width fit and an overall weight of 1.16 kg, this boot balances sturdy protection with a manageable heft for longer days on the trail.
The Gore-Tex membrane prevents external moisture from entering the boot but allows internal perspiration to escape, so feet stay drier in damp conditions. Vibram Rock Trac refers to a dual-compound rubber outsole with deep lugs that grip uneven surfaces and shed mud, helping you keep your footing when the ground gets slippery.
