Why We Like The Renegade GTX Mid Boot
Lowa has upgraded its popular Renegade GTX Mid Hiking Boot with a new Monowrap frame construction that not only reduces the boot’s weight but also improves its stability for even greater comfort on our weekend hikes. Combined with a waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX membrane, women’s-specific last, and a stiffer shank for extra support, the Renegade GTX is ready for miles of hiking on anything from gravel roads to boulder-strewn backcountry trails.

My everyday shoe after foot surgery
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
I got these for hiking - then in 2019 I had foot and ankle surgery, so they became my everyday shoe. I joke that these are my dress shoes, my flip-flops, my knock-around shoes and my slippers - I wear them all the time! I find that they run true to size - also, I have full-foot orthotics, which work great in them when I remove the original footbed (which is removable - no effort at all). After 6 years of owning them - with 2 ½ years of everyday wear - they are wearing out. I bought two pairs this time - two fun colors - so I really can change my mind. I suspect these will last me twice as long because of alternating between the two. Can't wait to have fancy new shoes! By the way - I love the colors - and for me - you could even do more fancy colors!

Buyer Beware- Inferior Quality Product

I wore these boots for a year and found them to be quite comfortable. I took meticulous care of them, cleaning the leather and the soles after every hike, hoping that I would get years of good use out of them. When I was preparing to condition and waterproof them for the winter, with the Lowa brand conditioner and water proofing product, I noticed a tear in the fabric inside, where they are laced. I filled out a warranty claim and submitted it to Lowa, expecting that they would provide good customer service and offer to replace them, like other companies do, i.e., L.L. Bean. When I called Lowa Boots, the customer service rep informed me that the tear was considered "normal wear and tear" and that they would not fix them or send me a new pair. For the price of $240, I would expect these boots would have held up better than they did. I will never buy a Lowa product again. Poor quality. Poor customer support from Lowa Boots.

Love my Lowas!

- I've used it several times

- 8.5
This is my fourth pair of Lowa hiking boots, third in this style, and as always they are perfect and comfy right out of the box with no break-in time required. I wear a 7.5 in shoes and that's what I always get for these boots as well. My feet are on the narrower side and slightly long, with a high arch/instep. Some brands are too wide and too short for me, but Lowas are always just right. Lightweight but warm and supportive, they are great all year round, including most of our cold, wet Michigan winters. I switch to taller boots when the snow cover is more than ankle deep, but these are great for all the rest of the time. I wear them pretty much every day for hikes in the woods with my dogs, and they hold up pretty well. However they don't seem to last quite as long as the Bora model from a few years ago (my first Lowas). Each time, within a year, the toes on my two previous pairs of Renegades developed cracks and started to come apart, which makes them pretty much useless unless the weather is warm and dry, which this is Michigan so forget it. Pretty disappointing for such an expensive boot, as I'd definitely rather not have to replace them annually after wearing them for an hour or two a day in pretty non-punishing conditions. Compare that to my Boras which lasted me a good couple of years of regular use including several backcountry trips on rough terrain in Arizona, including the Grand Canyon. Still, I have yet to find anything else as comfortable or that meets my needs as well as these. The only other issue is that the laces come loose as I walk unless I double-tie them, which is annoying to have to do and makes it impossible to adjust the instep and ankle to different degrees of tightness (as previous pairs have enabled). The bottom of the three speedhooks does not hold them tightly enough, so if you like your fit looser at the instep and tighter around the ankle (which I do), forget it, because that hook won't hold it firmly enough to allow this and eventually the looseness will work itself all the way up until you have no ankle support whatsoever and you'll have to stop and fuss with it, which is annoying.

Nice boot - not true to size for me

I wanted to love these boots - my husband has a pair of Lowa's and my best friend also has a pair of Lowa's.(they both love them). I could not find a local place to purchase or even try them on. I wear an 8 1/2 Salomon - fit perfectly , several pair and styles, but I wanted a true backcountry backpacking boot - which Salomon does not appear to offer. So I took a chance on getting Lowa 8 1/2 - it was too small. I don't want to order the 9 without actually trying on some Lowa boots - because of the shipping / return timeline. My return was been received - but still not showing in my backcountry order history or my bank account... So I have to wait to get the right boots.

Wanted to love these boots but couldn't

I really wanted to love these boots as there are many great features about them. I took these on a 3-day backpacking trip recently and after the first day, they gave both my feet (the back of the heel region) blisters (in identical spots on both feet). They felt like they fit my foot everywhere else (I have fairly narrow feet), and my toes were not jamming into the front of the boot (even with thick wool socks). However, when I tried them on straight out of the package, I noticed that there was a sort of protrusion at the heel region inside the shoe (those should have been alarm bells!) that was just slightly rubbing against my heel when I walked around the house (not at all painful at the time). I think they were the right size (8 US) but the interior of the shoe at the heel just wasn't a great fit and rather odd. As a few pros: they are light, easy to put on and take off while being able to tighten properly with lacing, good ankle support, and waterproof.

Not true to size

I wear a Hoka One size 9 regular. I have a broad forefoot and narrow heal and a regular instep. I’m 52 yrs old, 152 lbs and 5’4. This boot was tight on my forefoot and seemed that I may need to either give up in this brand or style, or attempt to size up to a 9.5, which I’m hesitant to do because the arch placement on the 9 seems to hit correctly. This appears to be a boot made with quality materials and is just…plain cute, so I’m torn as to whether to give a 9.5 a try and waste $$$ on shipping.

Not for me

I really wanted to love these boots, but after wearing them for a week or so, I knew it wasn't just about the break in. These boots are very sturdy and stylish, but for me they were too clunky/stiff with not enough mobility/flex in the sole. They fit just right everywhere except the toe box for me. I have short toes, and that could have something to do with it, but the inside of the shoe rubs my toes raw because it is too narrow and low in all the wrong places, and the stiffness of the sole made my feet ache by the end of a regular work day, let alone being on trails. Again, this probably has to do more with the shape of my foot than the boot itself, but I would say if you have short toes and like more room in the toe box, and you prefer more flex in your boots, these might not be for you. For reference, I am an avid hiker and work in a large state park. My duties include regular trail work and search and rescue response in the backcountry, which includes carrying a pack and possibly a person on very rugged terrain. If you have stubby feet like me, let me know what your go to hikers are!

I love love love these Lowa Renegade boots so much. Broke them in, wore them hundreds of miles, but the insoles aren't that great to me at least. I've also abused these by constantly hiking over sharp rocks and ledges so I'm saying I wasn't easy on these boots. I've never experienced so much discomfort over time. Was it the socks? No - I own several types of socks and none made a difference. If I knew in advance about the soles, I would've ordered a size up to get Dr. Scholl's gel insoles and hike on. I am constantly hiking over sharp rocks and steep ledges; afterwards walking on flat terrain there's no support like what you get with Ortholite insoles. I won't wear these if there's a possibility of sharp rocks/steep ledges because I don't get the support that I need. Short story: I love these boots. Insoles NEED improvement. I spent the extra money for the GORE-TEX feature and decided to try them after reading everyone's helpful reviews!

I love these boots. This is my fourth pair. I’ve been buying them since 1984. I have told many people that these are the most comfortable boots anyone could ever wear. I can dance in these boots. They give me fantastic ankle support I wear them all year round. I Would definitely buy again.

Hi I bought this boot about 8-9 years ago in size 6.5. They have been my go to daily hiking boot all these years. I want a new pair and usually wear a 7.5 running shoe. These boots fit my feet the best and am wondering if I still stay with the same size as my current boots at the 6.5? Also, I am in Canada - do you have a Canadian affiliate?
