Alpine Expert GTX®
Alpine Expert GTX®
Anatomical Fit: The anatomical shape of this carbon fibre insert wrapped in PU foam provides natural arch support and better fit.
Close to the ground: A lower-profile platform for better sole contact with the ground.
Close to the rock: Flatter toe profile is designed to keep the distance between foot and ground as small as possible or precise toe-hold.
Crampon compatible
Dura PU: This denser PU material is used in our Classic & ATC models. It absorbs shock - rebounds well and is extremely durable.
Fit wing: Creates ideal tensioning for more control ad better fit in the heel area.
GOR-TEX Lining: Highly breathable
Hard Winter Shank: Sturdy insole with an additional insulating layer for good stability on difficult terrain and protection from the cold at low temperatures.
I-Lock: Exclusive patented LOWA locking cam hooks for totally comfortable positioning of laces within the 2 Zone system.
LOWA Flex: Upper construction with freely moving lace hooks and other components for a more individualised fit to better adapt to personal comfort needs.
PrimaLoft: With the help of high-quality synthetic insulation - the wearer’s feet will always be warm in winter weather.
Metal eyelets with small rollers to minimise friction and ensure easy lacing.
Shock Absorber: Integrated heel cushioning set into the insole for more comfort and rebound.
Slightshot: Provides a very snug fit around the heel.
Vibram: With the Vibram® acclaimed sole unit you get an added dose of durability - comfort and superb performance.
X-Lacing: Patented LOWA technology holds the tongue in place vertically and horizontally. This prevents slippage and thus pressure points or blisters.

- Suede and Fabric Upper - Rough textured suede upper is robust and durable to extend the life of your boots. It's also open-pored for breathability while remaining water resistant. Fabric blend enables enable optimal heat and moisture management to keep you regulated in varying temperatures.
- Gore-Tex® Lining - Allows for moisture and sweat to escape while preventing water from entering from the outside through a semi-permeable membrane that also provides optimal breathability.
- X-Lacing Stud – A patented LOWA technology that holds the tongue in place horizontally and vertically thus reducing tongue movement and preventing pressure and blisters.
- C4 Tongue – Reduces pressure on the instep and allows for improved flex and comfort through anatomically shaped tongues that cradle the left and right foot specifically.
- Flex-fit Syncro - An asymmetrical construction of the upper and special flex zone allows for the boot to flex better with the lower leg so the foot can roll forward thus saving you strength when going uphill and providing noticeable comfort.
- Hard Winter Carbon Shank - A very stiff full length shank designed to be rigid for crampon compatibility. The stiffness allows climbers to ascend with ease by keeping the boot flat whilst keeping the boot weight to a minimum to reduce fatigue.
- Roller Eyelets – Small rollers in the metal eyelets allow for quick and easy lacing with minimal friction.
- Primaloft® 400g Insulation - 400 grams of high performance, water resistent and synthetic Primaloft® insulation material that is designed to keep your feet warm in high alpine altitudes.
- Intricate Fit - This boot is anatomically designed which provides added comfort through a personalized fit for each foot. The construction of the Alpine Expert is close to ground and close to rock for precise terrain feel on uneven ground and small rock edges for advanced climbing. It also features a shock absorbing heel that allows for a cushioned heel area for maximum comfort and reduced stress. An added rubber Slingshot heel creates a strong connection between the forefoot and rearfoot to ensure the heel sits naturally in the boot for a comfortable fit.
- Insole: Insulate Pro
- Low Profile Dura PU Midsole – Reduces fatigue and and potential injury when walking long distances by correcting the manner of walking and controlling excessive rolling movement of the feet outwards or inwards (over-pronation or supination).
- VIBRAM® Alp Trac® Ice Outsole - This alpine oriented performance outsole has been optimized for traction in high alpine terrain to provide better grip in icy and slippery terrain. The high tread depth of the lugs with the tried and tested rubber compound including the "climbing zone" at the tip of the sole offer traction in steep terrain so you can conquer difficult conditions with ease. This outsole is resoleable and crampon compatible.
