Low shoe or boot?

With membrane or without?

Most Lowa trekking shoes for children and Lowa hiking shoes for children such as the Innox GTX Lo Junior or Ledro GTX Lo Junior are equipped with a waterproof Gore-Tex membrane.It offers the great advantage that no moisture from the outside can penetrate the shoe, but moisture from the feet can easily escape to the outside.Wild romping along the riverbed or in the stream as well as playing in the snow or in the rain is no problem.But shoes and boots without membranes also offer advantages in some situations.Especially in dry and warm weather, hiking and trekking shoes and hiking boots for children, which do not have a membrane, have better breathability.Good to know: You can recognise shoes with a waterproof membrane by the addition GTX (abbreviation for "Gore-Tex") in the product name.

Leather or synthetic?

Whether you choose Lowa trekking shoes for children made of a synthetic mesh fabric or leather is primarily a question of personal taste.But there are some differences between the materials.Outdoor shoes made of synthetic materials have the advantage that they are very light and often cheaper.Leather hiking boots, on the other hand, are particularly robust, have a very high-quality appearance and are therefore often a little more expensive.Lowa hiking boots for children offer the best of both worlds with a material mix of synthetic and leather.Good examples of this are the Robin Evo GTX Lo or the Ledro GTX Lo from the Lowa range.

More or less profile?

One of the most important features of good Lowa children's trekking shoes and hiking boots is a grippy sole.It prevents the little ones from losing their balance and falling when running over slippery tree roots, slippery rocks or muddy ground.As a general rule, the steeper and more slippery the surface, the coarser the tread of the sole should be.In flat terrain, on the other hand, the sole profile plays a less important role.However, good cushioning is indispensable for children's outdoor shoes.As a rule, various cushioning layers are used here to absorb shocks when stepping or small jumps occur, thus protecting the ligaments and joints that are still growing.

Lacing, quicklacing or velcro?

Children who can already tie a bow should preferably get a shoe with lacing.The advantage is that the Lowa trekking shoes for children can thus be individually adjusted and sit more firmly on the foot when walking.Among other things, this increases surefootedness, as the kids get a better feel for the ground.Alternatively, Lowa hiking boots for boys and girls with quicklacing system are available.Instead of having to tie a bow, it is sufficient here to pull the laces tight.Some shoe models (predominantly medium-high and high Lowa mountain boots for children) combine the practical Quicklacing laces with additional Velcro fasteners.
