LO&WA AD-Illus 2021

The KODY EVO GTX MID JUNIOR underwent something more than a simple design update. The func­tional qualities of the hiking shoe for children have also been taken to a new level. The aim was to enable its child-friendly details and a new look to create a harmonious symbiosis. Like previous models, the upper is made of robust full-grain leather that is adorned with cool stitched seams. With the help of a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane, small feet will remain completely dry regardless of the weather. The lacing system is easy to use, even for impatient little hands. The shoe’s SUPPORT FRAME provides optimum support in the shoe whilst further stabilising the arches of chil­dren’s feet. The directly injected PU midsole also provides a strong layer of cush­ioning. In combination with the grippy Vibram outsole and the distinct stud profile, the NEW KODY GTX MID JUNIOR is the perfect multi­func­tional shoe that will enable curious children to embark on unending journeys of discovery.

    Why do we prefer to explore nature on foot?

    A day hike lasts for less than 24 hours and leads back to the starting point. The tour can cover either moun­tainous or flat terrain. The primary aim is to experience nature. The hike is usually done with light backpacks, and its degree of difficulty can vary greatly.

    “Shoes with GORE-TEX are a must if you plan to spend a lot of time with children outdoors. And which children do not get a really big kick out of jumping straight into puddles? We parents can now stop worrying about wet feet.”

    • Cush­ioning
      Good boot cush­ioning is necessary to create a pleasant feeling during each step a hiker takes. This ensures optimal comfort over a long period of time.

    • Comfortable
      Comfortable footwear is essential for long distances covered on foot. This is why LOWA places such a high priority on exact fit, something that is perfectly designed to handle short or long strolls.

    • Stability
      To ensure sufficient grip during hikes, both the sole and the upper should be stable.

    Discovering the world together!

    Kinder­garten is the place where children generally between the ages of 3 and 6 spend the day during the school week and are playfully cared for and encouraged. Their time in kinder­garten is spent doing the widest range of activities that are performed indoors and outdoors in nature.

    • Multi­func­tionality
      Into the shoes and out into the adventures. No matter whether the site is the woods, playing area, sandbox, swing or see-saw – children spend lots of time outdoors. Multi­func­tionality is the key here, the factor that ensures shoes are optimally equipped for every terrain and usage area.

    • Robust
      Bright sunshine or pouring rain – the weather doesn’t matter at all to people who like to head outdoors. That’s why LOWA boots are made of robust materials that provide the best comfort even in wind and weather.

    • Comfortable
      No matter what activity may be planned and how children intend to romp about, their shoes should definitely be comfortable. To ensure every day at kinder­garten becomes a complete success, LOWA places special emphasis on fit.

    Ready, set, play!

    No matter whether the site is a play­ground, playing area or athletic ground – children just want to have fun when they play indoors or outdoors in nature in any type of weather. They can play by them­selves or meet friends and enjoy some exciting adventures together.

    • Multi­func­tionality
      Off to school and the next playful adventure. No matter whether the site is a play­ground, woods, fields or an athletic ground – multi­func­tionality is the key here, the factor that ensures shoes are optimally equipped for every terrain and usage area.

    It’s off to school!

    Lunch is wrapped, rucksacks are packed, and now it’s off to school. At school, children and adolescents are taught knowledge and information that will prepare them for life after school. Their time at school is spent doing the widest range of activities that are performed indoors and outdoors in nature.

    matthias-wanner_vertriebsleiter-international-lowa

    “Every day is an adventure for my kids. These adventures naturally occur on the way to school and outside during recess. And, of course, on the play­ground after school. These activities really put our shoes to the test many times a day – and the shoes pass them with flying colours. Because the shoes are made in our European factories, I know that everything else will also be perfect. And this is exactly what I want to teach my children.”

LOWA x GORE-TEX – Nature Clean-Up

Nature provides us with all sorts of unique oppor­tunities to experience unfor­gettable adventures and enjoy very special moments. More and more people are making a conscious decision to get back in tune with nature. But the decision by more and more people to get back in tune with nature also results in a greater and greater impact on the envir­onment. You hear words like “awareness” and “mind­fulness” a lot in discussions about this trend – but what exactly do people mean when they use them? An example: The practise of taking your trash home with you after a tour now comes second nature to many people. Such steps, no matter how tiny they may seem, can be the key to a mindful and sustainable outdoor lifestyle. But if you look around outdoors, you will certainly see many places that certainly have room for improvement.

SINGLE INJECTION The bond between the sole and upper

The KODY EVO GTX MID JUNIOR is footwear onto which the outsole has been directly injected. This manu­fac­turing technique creates an excep­tionally precise and very strong bond between the sole and upper.

  • 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.

“Children are not small adults. Their bodies are growing, and their movement patterns are much more natural. For this reason, it makes sense to develop shoes that enable them to get a kick out of physical activity. We cannot simply turn a shoe designed for adults into a shoe used by children. The needs and requirements are totally different.”

Sole

VIBRAM RENEVO II JUNIOR

The wide cut with the large contact area, the coarse, self-cleaning sole profile, the MONOWRAP® sole design and the grippy rubber outsole are the defining features of the outdoor sole VIBRAM RENEVO II JUNIOR. More …

Proven Vibram rubber sole from a high-quality provider from Italy.

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. 45%
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%
Mesh

Mesh is a material that consists of many evenly spaced holes. It is usually made of polyester or nylon and basically a lattice-like material that is created by interwoven threads. Thanks to its special design, the man-made fibre is partic­ularly permeable to air, has special moisture-regu­lating qualities and is easy to care for, breathable and crease-resistant.

Approx. 45%
Memolatex

Memo latex is composed of very soft latex foam. In addition to being light­weight, memo latex supports the natural rolling motion of the foot. It is primarily used in shoe insoles as a result. Memo latex also indi­vidually enwraps the foot and is partic­ularly comfortable as a result.

Upper material

Approx. 80%
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.

Approx. 20%
Fabric

Our natural and synthetic fabrics facilitate optimal warming and moisture management with the help of their usage-specific char­ac­ter­istics. Thanks to their structural design, they are smooth and make our products extremely comfortable.

Lining material

100%
GORE-TEX

Footwear equipped with a GORE-TEX membrane is reliably waterproof, windproof and breathable. More …

Construction methods

Injected Construction

To create optimal cush­ioning and the very best comfort, the soles of LOWA multi­func­tional shoes are directly injected. The complex injection process attaches the slip-lasted upper directly to the sole. This method creates shoes that offer optimal cush­ioning and are partic­ularly light­weight.

Weight

PPE Regu­lation

Please note that if it is intended to use the purchased products as personal protective equipment in accordance with Art. 3 No. 1 of Regu­lation (EU) 2016/425 (PPE Regu­lation), the user is responsible for checking the products for the presence of a corres­ponding certi­fication (see technical data of the product).

Service & accessories

Available repairs

Seam repair

Right at the devel­opment stage, our footwear is designed in such a way that the seams for the different parts of the upper are equal to the demands placed on them. But even with the greatest of care, seams can of course still come apart. Torn or worn seams can be repaired without any difficulty at our service workshop. More …

Heel lining repair

The heel lining is one of the parts of a shoe that are subject to the most stress. Even with quality materials, chafing and signs of wear can of course still occur. The heel lining for leather and GORE-TEX footwear can be repaired without any difficulty at our service workshop. More …

Hook repair

Hooks, loops and eyelets are essential for lacing and putting on all types of footwear. Even with the biggest selection of material, indi­vidual parts can still break, tear or fall apart. Our service workshop can repair all that in house. More …

Cuff repair

Repairing the cuff required a lot of handwork, know-how and utmost care. First, the new edging piece is cut by hand and sewn onto the upper. In a second step, the worn material is removed and replaced with the new piece, ensuring that the necessary glueing and seams match the LOWA standards and nothing pinches on the cuff. More …

Replacement parts

Whether it’s new insoles, a speed-lace system, new laces or other replacement parts. Let us know what you need for your favourite LOWA footwear and we’ll send it to you. More …
