LOWA recently launched their newest line, providing hikers a new option before setting out on the trails. These line, called All Terrain Running or ATR combines the quality of their premium quality of a hiking shoe with lighter, trail running fabrics making it a perfect option for long-distance hikers. So said, I tested the new LOWA ATR Amplux. LOWA, a german brand knowing for their larger boots are now entering the world of lightweight hikers with these ATR line. Exciting!
And as you might know, I’m a big fan of lower shoes for most trails in Europe. Only when the trails are wet and go through a lot of swamp areas do I take higher boots with me. But finding the right shoe is always tricky, so I tested the LOWA ATR Amplux, the new All Terrain Running shoe that a lot of hikers use. I found that it is like most other trail running shoes in that it is great for hiking in general.
