LOWA Gorgon GTX: Your Everyday Shoe
June 24, 2024
If you live in a mountain town with wet summers, or lingering snow on trails at higher elevations, the LOWA Gorgon GTX (waterproof Gore-Tex) could be your everyday shoe.
A seamless interior makes them comfortable upon first step-in. The structure of the upper comes courtesy of an exterior frame that, in conjunction with a dual-density midsole, makes the Gorgons feel stable on a variety of terrain. With a 12mm drop between the heel, and forefoot cushioning, the forefoot feels a tad firm on rough ground. But ample flexibility, despite the Gore-Tex upper (which can make some shoes feel too stiff) allows the Gorgon GTX to remain comfortable both on-trail and off.
Always good to own a pair of Gore-Tex shoes.
Hitting the trails in the summer not only makes you a stronger skier and rider, but can be a downright fun way to stay (or, get) super fit while enjoying long days and warm sun.
We tested the season’s best trail running and hiking shoes to help you tackle the trails, from smooth running, town-to-trail options, full-on mountain chargers, to hikers that cross-over to all your mountain town needs.
