Special missions are law enforcement operations conducted by tactical units on variable terrain for the purpose of fighting terrorism, rescuing hostages and enforcing arrest warrants. Footwear worn during special missions has particular features that enable it to meet the variable requirements of such operations in the best-possible way. These critical features include high agility created by moderate upper and sole rigidity, multidirectional soles for fast changes of direction and low weight for fast-paced missions.

High agility – The boot’s upper and sole stiffness do not limit the user and has been optimized for fast movements.

Multidirectional sole – The multidirectional sole provides the foot with the support it needs during fast movements without limiting maneuverability.

Lightweight – The lightweight design significantly increases the footwear’s dynamics.

The Zephyr GTX HI TF is equipped with a Lowa Rubber outsole. Conceived by Lowa to meet the challenges of real-world use, the profile design is made from an optimized rubber compound. The result is a rubber outsole with good traction in the backcountry and off trail.

The Lowa Cross equipped with special profile design provides solid grip on a range of different surfaces. The self-cleaning sole profile is designed for both paved and unpaved terrain.

With the LOWA-MONOWRAP® frame, the midsole of the ZEPHYR GTX HI TF provides the very best comfort. This three-dimen­sional midsole design was developed by LOWA in 1995. The frame comfortably cradles the foot and support it when the shoe wearer ventures across uneven surfaces. The sole design is slightly raised for shoes with a STABILITY FRAME.

• Good guidance for the foot
  The foot is optimally nestled into the shoe thanks to the frame’s three-dimen­sional design.
• Increased comfort
  The special midsole design ensures snug footing in the shoe. The foot is pleasantly cradled by the three-dimen­sional frame.
• Light­weight
  The LOWA-MONOWRAP® is made of a plastic called poly­urethane. It is a very light­weight material.

To provide effective cush­ioning and improved comfort, the sole of the ZEPHYR GTX HI TF is bonded to the upper in a tech­nically demanding injection process. The upper boot is placed into a specially designed mold. Various layers of PU foam padding are tan poured into it. In the process, the sole and upper are bonded together.

• 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.
