No matter whether the site is a playground, playing area or athletic ground – children just want to have fun when they play indoors or outdoors in nature in any type of weather. They can play by themselves or meet friends and enjoy some exciting adventures together.
Multifunctionality
Off to school and the next playful adventure. No matter whether the site is a playground, woods, fields or an athletic ground – multifunctionality is the key here, the factor that ensures shoes are optimally equipped for every terrain and usage area.
Robust
Bright sunshine or pouring rain – the weather doesn’t matter at all to people who like to head outdoors. That’s why LOWA boots are made of robust materials that provide the best comfort even in wind and weather.
Kindergarten is the place where children generally between the ages of 3 and 6 spend the day during the school week and are playfully cared for and encouraged. Their time in kindergarten is spent doing the widest range of activities that are performed indoors and outdoors in nature.
Multifunctionality
Into the shoes and out into the adventures. No matter whether the site is the woods, playing area, sandbox, swing or see-saw – children spend lots of time outdoors. Multifunctionality is the key here, the factor that ensures shoes are optimally equipped for every terrain and usage area.
Robust
Bright sunshine or pouring rain – the weather doesn’t matter at all to people who like to head outdoors. That’s why LOWA boots are made of robust materials that provide the best comfort even in wind and weather.
Comfortable
No matter what activity may be planned and how children intend to romp about, their shoes should definitely be comfortable. To ensure every day at kindergarten becomes a complete success, LOWA places special emphasis on fit.
Lunch is wrapped, rucksacks are packed, and now it’s off to school. At school, children and adolescents are taught knowledge and information that will prepare them for life after school. Their time at school is spent doing the widest range of activities that are performed indoors and outdoors in nature.
“Every day is an adventure for my kids. These adventures naturally occur on the way to school and outside during recess. And, of course, on the playground after school. These activities really put our shoes to the test many times a day – and the shoes pass them with flying colours. Because the shoes are made in our European factories, I know that everything else will also be perfect. And this is exactly what I want to teach my children.”

No matter what activity may be planned and how long the walk to school may be, pupils’ shoes should definitely be comfortable. To ensure that every school day becomes a complete success, LOWA places special emphasis on fit.
Multifunctionality

Made of polyurethane (PU), the outsole of the RAIK GTX impresses users with a profile design that has been optimised with real-world challenges in mind. The strong combination of good cushioning behaviour and lightness turns the sole into an ideal footwear feature.
The simple sole model LOWA® SNEAKER KIDS WINTER obtains its light weight with the help of its diamond-shaped stud design in combination with its PU mixture. The result: romping around in the snow becomes lots more fun.
Guaranteed weather protection, even in pouring rain and heavy snow: The RAIK GTX 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.

“Shoes with GORE-TEX are a must if you plan to spend a lot of time with children outdoors. And which children do not get a really big kick out of jumping straight into puddles? We parents can now stop worrying about wet feet.”
Nature provides us with all sorts of unique opportunities to experience unforgettable adventures and enjoy very special moments. More and more people are making a conscious decision to get back in tune with nature. But the decision by more and more people to get back in tune with nature also results in a greater and greater impact on the environment. You hear words like “awareness” and “mindfulness” a lot in discussions about this trend – but what exactly do people mean when they use them? An example: The practise of taking your trash home with you after a tour now comes second nature to many people. Such steps, no matter how tiny they may seem, can be the key to a mindful and sustainable outdoor lifestyle. But if you look around outdoors, you will certainly see many places that certainly have room for improvement.

To provide effective cushioning and improved comfort, the sole of the RAIK GTX is bonded to the upper in a technically demanding injection process. The upper boot is placed into a specially designed mould. Various layers of PU foam padding are then poured into it. In the process, the sole and upper are bonded together.
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.

The model RAIK GTX is produced with a special children’s last. These lasts are not simply mini-versions of the lasts used for adults’ feet. They have been specially modified to reflect the anatomy of children’s feet and reduced in size. In addition, the height and width of the heel, toe and instep areas have been modified.

“Children are not small adults. Their bodies are growing, and their movement patterns are much more natural. For this reason, it makes sense to develop shoes that enable them to get a kick out of physical activity. We cannot simply turn a shoe designed for adults into a shoe used by children. The needs and requirements are totally different.”

The LOWA PU outsoles set themselves apart with their reduced weight and very comfortable cushioning.
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.
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.
Non-woven fabric is a collection of fibre of limited length, filaments or cut yarns. Used as a component/covering of feet beds, the layer of non-woven fabric absorbs the heat generated by the foot, creating a pleasant feeling of comfort even in cold weather.
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.
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.
