I bought a pair of Lowas despite the high prices, figuring they'd be extremely high quality , judging from the price. I wore them lightly...no hiking, just urban wear..shopping, casual wear, etc. WHen, after a year, they started to delaminate at the sole, I wrote to Lowa, who was very gracious in telling me to send them back, they would be repaired or replaced. They did neither, telling me that the "style was over 5 years old, and we won't cover it."

As a result, now i am out the 125 i paid for them, and the 11$ i spent sending them back.

VERY poor performance, Lowa!!!!!
!
BEWARE!!!!!
