Lowa Malta GTX Lo Shoe - Women's Seaweed/Jade, 6.5

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I have been wearing the Lowa Malta GTX Lo as my default shoe on travel days and casual hiking trips where I want one shoe that handles both without compromise. The GORE-TEX keeps my feet dry on unexpected wet stretches without making the shoe feel stiff or heavy, and the DynaPU midsole has enough rebound to stay comfortable through a full day on varied surfaces. It looks at home on a dirt path and equally natural walking into a coffee shop afterward.""Most days do not fit neatly into one category, and neither should your shoes. The Lowa Malta GTX Lo Shoe was built for the kind of day that starts on a wet sidewalk, detours onto a dirt trail, and ends somewhere worth lingering, without ever asking you to stop and swap footwear in between. Lowa brought together a leather upper, a GORE-TEX membrane for reliable waterproof breathability, and a DynaPU midsole that delivers lightweight rebound and lasting comfort across hours of mixed terrain and casual miles alike. The Lowa rubber outsole handles the transition from packed trail to pavement with the kind of low-profile grip that feels as natural in town as it does on the path leading out of it. A gender-specific fit means the shoe works with your foot rather than around it, and at just over a pound per shoe, it carries like a sneaker even when it is working harder than one."
