Lowa Taurus Pro Goretex Mid

No matter whether you want to take long walks or hike on paved trails – the TAURUS PRO GTX MID will always feel right at home. Thanks to its MID-CUT upper made of suede leather and its robust fabric, the light and discreet multi­func­tional boot offers good performance and perfect fit. Its waterproof GORE-TEX lining provides the very best comfort at all times.

Features:

Outsole With An Optimal Rubber Compound:
– The TAURUS PRO GTX MID 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 optimised rubber compound. The result is a rubber outsole with good traction in the back­country and off trail. The LOWA® LIMA sole impresses with its multi­direc­tional profile alignment that provides a solid grip on moderate terrain. To ensure pleasant mountain climbs, the sole also has a distinctive heel edge.

Specifications:

– Midsole: 100% Poly­urethane (PU)
– Poly­urethane (PU) is a soft plastic that has very good cush­ioning prop­erties and is usually used in the midsole as a result. Through the use of PU, the soles become light­weight and func­tionally flexible.

Insole:
Approx. 40% Poly­ethylene:
– Poly­ethylene is a semi-crys­talline and non-polar ther­mo­plastic resin that is, by far, the most widely used plastic in the world. Poly­ethylene is used in part as a component of man-made fibre/blended fabrics. It is used primarily to create comfort and insulate the foot from below.

Approx. 45% Felt:
– Felt is a textile fabric that is made of disordered fibrous material that is difficult to separate. The textile fabric is char­ac­terised by its high elasticity and its insu­lating qualities. As a result, it is used in particular as a component in insoles and as an insu­lating divider.

Approx. 15% Fabric :
– Our natural and synthetic fabrics facilitate optimal warming and moisture management with the help of their usage-specific char­ac­ter­istics. Thanks to their structural design, they are smooth and make our products extremely comfortable.

Upper Material:
Approx. 60% Suede leather:
– Suede leather comes from the flesh side of the hide. It has a looser fibre structure, a quality that creates a velvety surface and a light pile. Suede leather is partic­ularly durable and open-pored. Depending on the desired look, suede leather can remain untreated or be oiled or waxed.

Approx. 40% Fabric:
– Our natural and synthetic fabrics facilitate optimal warming and moisture management with the help of their usage-specific char­ac­ter­istics. Thanks to their structural design, they are smooth and make our products extremely comfortable.

Technology:

Guar­Anteed Weather Protection:
– Guar­anteed weather protection, even in pouring rain and heavy snow: The TAURUS PRO GTX MID is equipped with a GORE-TEX membrane. The innovative tech­nology delivers optimal waterproof protection and breath­ability.

Permanently waterproof:
– The membrane provides reliable waterproof protection. No matter what sort of adventure you may be planning, you can count on GORE-TEX tech­nology to keep your feet pleasantly dry.

High breath­ability:
– Designed with optimal breath­ability in mind, GORE-TEX shoes provide pleasant comfort even during intense activities. Water cannot penetrate the footwear, and moisture produced inside the shoe escapes through billions of pores in the GORE-TEX membrane.

Windproof:
– The GORE-TEX membrane dependably fights off the wind and the weather. As a result, you can head off on a tour no matter what the weather is like.

Comfortably Framed:
– With the LOWA-MONOWRAP® frame, the midsole of the TAURUS PRO GTX MID 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 SUPPORT 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.

The Bond Between The Sole And Upper:
The TAURUS PRO GTX MID is footwear onto which the outsole has been directly injected. This manu­fac­turing technique creates an excep­tionally precise and very strong bond between the sole and upper.

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.

Construction Methods:

Injected Construction:
– To create optimal cush­ioning and the very best comfort, the soles of LOWA multi­func­tional shoes are directly injected. The complex injection process attaches the slip-lasted upper directly to the sole. This method creates shoes that offer optimal cush­ioning and are partic­ularly light­weight.
