A lightweight, quiet and stable boot that offers the walking comfort of a hiking boot with the protection and support of a backpacking boot is the ultimate combo for taking on tactical hunting missions.
The safety-certified Z-8S/Z-6S GTX is a robust boot that impresses with functionality and reduced weight for operations in demanding terrain where a supportive yet light boot is desirable.
This boot is suitable for hunting trips that require a light and quiet boot or for tactical missions carrying medium to heavy packweight. The Z-8S provides extra ankle support with the 8-inch high cut, whereas the Z-6S features all the same benefits in a mid-ankle cut.
To find the exact size of your foot, you can download our Foot Size Chart here. Print the chart and carefully follow the instructions to get your size. You can also find it below. Simply click on each image and download.
Shop with confidence as we offer FREE EXCHANGES on all orders. Not happy with your sizing or style just pick another pair. If you are unsure with exactly what size you are, order 2 different sizes and send back the one you don't want for FREE.
LOWA boots are true to size and are in UK sizes. Lacing and sock thickness can make a difference to the fit. Depending on the style you are looking at, it may be available in wide or standard width.
Z-8S GTX® C Video
Split Leather Upper
The perforated leather improves the breathability of waterproof Gore-Tex lining.
Gore-Tex® Lining
Allows for moisture and sweat to escape while preventing water from entering from the outside.
Medium Flex Stabilizer Full Length
Provides sturdy underfoot support.
LOWA MONOWRAP® Frame
Reduces overall boot weight without compromising flexibility.
Closed Lace Hooks
Prevents the laces from getting caught on objects upon contact.
Polyurethane (PU) Midsole
Added cushioned comfort will last longer on the trail. PU midsoles do not deform under heavy packloads so you can carry more without compromising weight and flexibility.
LOWA® Tactical Z Trac® Outsole
The advantage of a rubber outsole is its good grip on varying surfaces so you have the most control on slippery terrain. It is also heat and cold insulating, antistatic and resistant to contact heat, oil and fuel.
Invest In Your Comfort
You invest a lot of time, money and effort in your outdoor adventures, so it makes sense that you invest in the most comfortable, durable footwear you can find.
Comfort so fierce it made me forget i couldn't walk properly.
The first time in nearly a decade where my shoes have walked me. The Z8's offer a level of support, versatility, and insulation( in both ways) that feels so native its more accurate to call them prosthetics, not shoes.
They're warm, breathable and dont sweat. Worn for a full 36hours ( may have forgotten i had them on..) without getting hot or itchy, no preassure build up in the ankles or heels.
I know this sounds like an endorsement, but its just an honest opinion I have zero sponsorships( that doesn't mean Im opposed. Would 100% be on board for a sponsorship just putting that out there...)
No better tactical boot on the market. 10/10

Geoff Hayes (Sydney, AU)
Comfort & ankle support like no other.
Great boots for maximum ankle support whilst still being comfortable.
They are my first choice in boots.

Benjamin Clun (Brisbane, AU)
Best boots I’ve had.
I’ve been a merrell guy for years, took the chance on these.
First time wearing them out of the box was for 12 hours straight, working a big day. No hot spots. At all.
Simply superb footwear.
