Robust support on chal­lenging terrain: With the Z-11S GTX C, LOWA has created a durable mission boot that is both very stable and light­weight. Its qualities have predestined it for use on rough terrain. The extra-high upper made of tough suede leather provides optimal support. The durable PU material used in the sole that comes in various degrees of rigidity provides excep­tional cush­ioning and stability. The heat- and cold-insu­lating sole design is anti-slip. It is also resistant to oil, petrol and contact heat. The lining with the GORE-TEX membrane creates an optimal foot climate even during sweat-generating activity. The Z-11S GTX C is also anti­static.

    Perfect in use.

    Combat deployment is a military assignment conducted in an active war zone. The combat mission is designed to fend off threats as well as to restore and maintain public safety. The terrain can vary greatly, depending on the area of operation. It may range from urban areas to remote locations with rough terrain. The ideal footwear for combat missions has a stable upper that supports the ankle and provides a high level of comfort even during extended engagements. A robust fabric provides the required durability, even under adverse conditions.

    • Stable upper
      The stable upper provides the support required for demanding situ­ations.

    • Very robust
      The very robust boot is designed to handle long, demanding combat missions.

    • Comfortable
      The boot is also ideal for extended periods of wear thanks to its high level of comfort.

    The right comrade in every situation.

    Patrols cover a limited area. They are used to conduct exploration, recon­naissance or security missions. The location and length of such missions vary tremendously, a fact that places tremendous demands on mission equipment, partic­ularly the footwear. Chal­lenging terrain (like the Hindu Kush mountain range in Afgh­anistan), frequent kneeling as well as good mobility and respons­iveness require tough, but light­weight boots that offer moderate sole rigidity and provide solid support to the ligaments and tendons.

    • Stable upper
      The stable upper provides the support required during abrupt movements.

    • Moderate sole rigidity
      The boot’s moderate sole rigidity supports the foot without hindering movement.

    • Comfortable
      The snug boot remains comfortable even when it is worn for an extended amount of time.

Z-11S GTX C

LOWA® TACTICAL Z TRAC® Outsole with an optimal rubber compound

The Z-11S GTX C is equipped with a LOWA RUBBER OUTSOLE. Conceived by LOWA to meet the chal­lenges of real-world use, the profile design is made from an optimised rubber compound. The result is a rubber outsole with good traction in the back­country and off trail.

The special profile design of the LOWA® TACTICAL Z TRAC® impresses users with its good support and grip that is delivered even on chal­lenging terrain. The sole optimised for fast-roping missions combines heat- and cold-insu­lating qualities. It is anti­static and resistant to oil, petrol and contact heat as well.

GORE-TEX Extended Comfort Footwear Guar­anteed weather protection – even during warm temper­atures.

Guar­anteed weather protection even during warm temper­atures: The Z-11S GTX C is equipped with a GORE-TEX extended comfort footwear membrane. The innovative tech­nology delivers optimal waterproof protection and breath­ability.

  • Permanently waterproof
    The membrane provides reliable waterproof protection. No matter what sort of activity you may be planning, you can count on GORE-TEX tech­nology to keep your feet pleasantly dry.

  • High breath­ability
    Designed with optimal breath­ability in mind, GORE-TEX shoes are a pleasure to wear even during intense activities and warm weather. Water cannot penetrate the footwear, and moisture produced inside the shoe escapes through billions of pores in the GORE-TEX membrane.

  • Windproof
    The GORE-TEX membrane dependably fights off the wind and the weather. As a result, you can head off on a tour no matter what the weather is like.

Robust support on challenging terrain: With the Z-11S GTX C, LOWA has created a durable mission boot that is both very stable and lightweight. Its qualities have predestined it for use on rough terrain. The extra-high upper made of tough suede leather provides optimal support. The durable PU material used in the sole that comes in various degrees of rigidity provides exceptional cushioning and stability. The heat- and cold-insulating sole design is anti-slip. It is also resistant to oil, petrol and contact heat. The lining with the GORE-TEX membrane creates an optimal foot climate even during sweat-generating activity. The Z-11S GTX C is also antistatic.

DOUBLE INJECTION Upper and sole become a fixed unit

To provide effective cush­ioning and improved comfort, the sole of the Z-11S GTX C is bonded to the upper in a tech­nically demanding injection process. The upper boot is placed into a specially designed mould. Various layers of PU foam padding are then poured into it. In the process, the sole and upper are bonded together.

  • Light­weight
    This process uses a plastic called poly­urethane. It is a very light­weight foam padding.

  • Cush­ioning
    The plastic called poly­urethane is a foam padding that has very good cush­ioning prop­erties. The plastic retains its form and springs back to its original condition even when its millions of tiny bubbles are frequently pressed together. This, in turn, creates a good rebound effect.

  • A wide range of design options
    Thanks to direct injection, the sole can be designed in a very large number of ways. The multi­faceted prop­erties of the materials used enable the shoes to be effective in a broad number of areas.

Midsole

100%
Poly­urethane (PU)

Poly­urethane (PU) is a soft plastic that has very good cush­ioning prop­erties and is usually used in the midsole as a result. Through the use of PU, the soles become light­weight and func­tionally flexible.

Insole

Approx. 90%
Felt

Felt is a textile fabric that is made of disordered fibrous material that is difficult to separate. The textile fabric is char­ac­terised by its high elasticity and its insu­lating qualities. As a result, it is used in particular as a component in insoles and as an insu­lating divider.

Approx. 10%
Polyamide

Poly­amides are plastics that are synthesised and can be used to produce man-made fibres as a result. In addition to their toughness, poly­amides are known for their form stability, tear and abrasion resistance and waterproof qualities. Poly­amides are also elastic, very stretchy and high gloss.

Upper material

100%
Suede leather

Suede leather comes from the flesh side of the hide. It has a looser fibre structure, a quality that creates a velvety surface and a light pile. Suede leather is partic­ularly durable and open-pored. Depending on the desired look, suede leather can remain untreated or be oiled or waxed.
