5.0 out of 5 stars Great boots for shorter distance backpacking on established trails June 14, 2011

By Chanteuse

Color Name:Dark Grey/ Navy| Size Name:7 B(M) US|Amazon Verified Purchase

Lowa's last for female is legendary for its fit and comfort. I am a true believer for I have owned 3 pairs of Lowa in different models already. Vasque, Keen, and Asolo can't win my trust.

Renegade is Lowa's most popular and hardest working hiking boots. Let's face it, most people are not doing long-mileage days bushwacking with a heavy pack strapped on. For most people the most they'd do is to hike for 5 hours (with a 2 hr break) with less than 10lb on. If they do it once a month that's considered often.

Thus the demand and appreciation for this model is high. They are built for your typical occasional day hikers in mind. The built and support are more than enough for them. It is also a good pair of work boots if your working environment demands such footwear.

After Vasque Wasatch gave me 4 hot spots on a 12-mile day hike up to Mt. Baldy (yeah, testing new boots doing 6000' gain and loss in one day, very smart of me) and 2 hot spots after another 14-mile backpacking day gaining and lossing 4000' with 20lb on (gotta give it a second chance, right?), I returned the Wasatch and bought Lowa Renegade instead.

I tried them for an over-nighter carrying 25lb and covered about 7 miles total in a day with very moderate elevation gain and loss, I was sold on Renegade. They did the job beautifully, never made me feel like wearing ski boots or not having enough ankle/foot support and sole flexibility.

However, I can imagine if I'd up the mileage, elevation gain/loss, and backpack weight, I would need something more heavy duty (I bought a pair of Lowa Vivione on Amazon). However, since I don't backpack all the time (who does??), for intermediate/advance level day hikes in the Sierra, Renegade is a perfect pair of boots.

Lowa makes several models in wide and narrow width besides the usual med width. Make sure you order your boots in the right width.

5.0 out of 5 stars READY TO ROLL! May 29, 2011

I purchased these boots because of a previous, very positive experience I'd had with Lowa. A pair or travel shoes I got for a 3 week trip to Egypt turned out to be not only stylish, but the most comfortable shoe that you can imagine. They were advertised as not requiring break-in time and they lived up to the promise. So, thought I'd give Lowa a try once again. And, I must say, I am not sorry.

I ordered these boots on 4/24, received them with free shipping on 4/27, and wore them on a 7 mile hike on 4/28. They were as comfortable as my other Lowas, and stylist to boot. They held the ground well while hiking up dirt trails and were comfortable while walking down steep embankments. Athough my feet tend to be slightly narrow, especially in the heel, the toe bed had a little extra room, which added to the comfort. I could not have asked for a more positive purchase experience.

Love these boots!

5.0 out of 5 stars I have been looking for these my whole life without knowing June 16, 2012

By Dizzy

I have AAA, size 10.5-11 feet. Yeah, finding shoes sucks. I tend to be on the cheap side and in normal life go for poorly made shoes, in size 10 or 11, and hope I can find one in the pile that's made narrower than the others due to poor quality control. This attitude permeates my approach to buying things in general. What can I say, it's the American way.

Recently a CANADIAN friend of mine yelled at me for having shoes with poor support, and that are of poor quality and fall apart. Big wake up call for me. So I've been looking in general for better quality shoes, that will last a much longer time. Time to ditch the running shoes and get something real. I went to my local Adventure16 (amazing store!) and got professionally fitted, and was recommended these in size 10.5 narrow, which amazingly, they had. I hesitated for a few days, doing research on any possible other shoes, especially that would be cheaper than this. Ladies, if you have long, narrow (did I mention ridiculously flat! that too) feet like I do, I simply don't think there's another hiking shoe to be had. The cost is definitely worth it- these are the sort of shoes that can last 10, 20 years even depending on use. Vibram soles, goretex, high quality hooks for lacing, yeah. And, they're sooo comfortable to boot! (sorry, I couldn't help myself).
