LOWA® Zephyr MK2 GTX MID Women's Shoes

The women's version of the Zephyr MK2 GTX MID combat boot from the German company Lowa is the latest iteration of the legendary shoe, which balances agility, lightness and stability. These characteristics predetermine the footwear for use by military or police special units, but also by "ordinary" members of the armed forces.

Zephyr in the second generation

MK2 in the name of the shoes indicates that this is the second generation of the Zephyr shoes, which brings some improvements compared to the first generation. This is, for example, a fastening hook for a two-zone lacing system.

A perfect mix of materials

The Zephyr MK2 GTX MID Ws are shoes that combine a perfect blend of materials and technology. The MID-CUT upper, which is made of suede and the patented Cordura material, is therefore ideal for rappelling or skydiving. The included suede repels water and is resistant to tearing, Cordura has a high resistance to abrasion and is breathable at the same time.

Time-proven membrane and innovative midsole

For the Zephyr MK2 GTX MID shoes, a waterproof and at the same time excellently breathable Gore-Tex Extended Comfort membrane was used. Gore-Tex membranes have been tried and tested for years and you can rely on them. As well as the innovative midsole, which is double-layered, made of polyurethane foam and is combined with a Monowrap frame that hugs the wearer's foot and supports it.

(Not only) for rappelling

These Lowa shoes are not only designed for rappelling, but if you have ever done such an activity, then you know that special requirements are placed on shoes for these special purposes. For example, the hooks on the laces must be hidden so that they don't get caught in the rope, good heel cushioning and of course a stable upper are also important. All these features prevent potential injury.

Unique lacing system

The Zephyr MK2 GTX MID features a unique two-zone lacing system where the forefoot and upper have separate (and separately adjustable) lacing zones. The shoe can thus adapt perfectly to the anatomy of your foot and can be laced in different ways for different usage scenarios.

Technologically advanced processing

The Zephyr MK2 GTX MID footwear is produced by a technologically relatively demanding process. And specifically by injection, which connects the sole with the upper. This ensures more effective cushioning and greater wearer comfort. The upper part of the shoe is inserted into a special mold, and various layers of PU foam filling are gradually poured into it.

A frame that holds and supports the foot

The Lowa-Monowrap shoe frame creates a three-dimensional midsole design, keeping the foot comfortable and supported. Especially when you need to cross an uneven surface. The snug fit of the foot in the shoe means that you won't get tired as quickly when walking. In addition, the two-layer midsole perfectly insulates heat and cold.

X-Trac Military outsole

All Zephyr MK2 footwear models have used the X-Trac Military sole, which has the best anti-slip properties (SRC - according to ISO 20347), excellent insulation against extreme temperatures - whether hot or cold - and is resistant to fuel, oil and contact heat.
