The Best LOWA Military Boots For Hot Climates (Dry Vs Humid)

When exercising in hot and dry conditions, such as in the desert, you need a boot that is lightweight and breathable to prevent rubbing and blisters caused by a buildup of sweat. With this in mind, we’d recommend the following LOWA military boots:

Designed to meet the needs of military personnel operating in Iraq and Afghanistan, the LOWA Desert Elite is made from a combination of suede leather and Cordura® fabric. This combination of materials allows the feet to breathe comfortably, whilst being durable, robust and tear-resistant in order to protect against potential hazards. In addition to this, the rubber Vibram® MVS soles provide extra support whilst featuring anti-shock properties. A spacious toe box provides greater volume around the arch and instep, offering plenty of room for feet to breathe, whilst a fabric lining enhances the comfort of these LOWA military boots.

                                              

Created to provide support and comfort during intense levels of activity in the heat, these LOWA military boots are supportive, durable and breathable. The uppers are made using split leather that is abrasion-resistant and feature fabric elements for enhanced ventilation in desert environments. An exclusive Monowrap® Frame improves the boot’s overall durability and longevity whilst providing an extra layer of protection for the feet. The Tactical Z Trac® sole ensures grip in rugged terrain whilst offering an additional layer of comfort on hard ground. These LOWA military desert boots also have a longer shaft for enhanced ankle support.

                                                    

These LOWA military desert boots are designed for those operating in a lightweight role that does not involve direct patrolling on the ground, day in day out. This makes them ideal for the likes of CLP drivers, office based personnel, air crew and medics to name but a few. Just like the Desert Elite Coyote Op, these LOWA military boots are made from a combination of suede leather and Cordura® that ensures breathability without compromising on durability and protection. The exclusive Monowrap® sole unit features a PU heel stabiliser offering enhanced stability and reliable traction that’s supported further by the “Cross” sole.

                                                 

Finding the correct footwear for hot and humid climates is a completely different ball game. In humidity, it’s essential that your footwear accommodates for the extra levels of moisture. The LOWA Jungle Boot is the best option for this. Let’s find out why.

Tested by members of 3 Commando Brigade Royal Marines, our high performance jungle boots have been relied upon in the Central American jungles of Belize and the South East Asian jungles of Brunei. The uppers are made with full-grain leather that is naturally moisture-resistant, whilst being incredibly durable making them perfect for use in the humidity and on wet jungle floors. The other element’s of the boot’s upper are made using Cordura® fabric that offers some level of waterproofing and absorption. In addition to these properties, the Vibram® Aconcagua sole features a special lug design to ensure the highest level of traction, whilst cushioned EVA midsoles prevent fatigue during long treks. These properties are essential for accommodating tropical scenarios where you may need to boulder, climb, scramble or wade through wet slopes and soft earth.
