Combat Boot GTX

Not many industries are so obviously linked to nature as the outdoor industry. Corporate responsibility (CR) and sustainability have therefore become increasingly important in recent years. High-quality materials and equipment, whose form and function must meet special, often very demanding usage requirements, need to be durable and robust as well as not harmful to health and the environment. And this applies not only to the end products themselves; their production should and must also take place under fair and environmentally sound conditions.

All these aspects are part of the company philosophy at LOWA and have been combined into a comprehensive CR strategy. This strategy is part of a long-range process that touches on all areas of the company. The ultimate aim of this work is to gradually integrate the sustainable company philosophy into a range of sub-areas at the company and to transparently showcase our CR activities.

Responsibility and scope

CR management at LOWA has been organisationally placed with the company's management team. This enables LOWA to identify areas with improvement potential and to derive and implement corresponding measures.

Back in 1923 a humble shoemaking business based in a small Jetzendorf village was just beginning to take hold, the brand which was soon to be known as LOWA Boots was carving its path to becoming one of the most sought after footwear manufacturers in the military industry. Footwear designs were originally inspired by the mountains with LOWA developing a successful Alpine boot for the mountain infantry, and its here that the brand recognised the benefits of technical features and expanded to offer the wearer much more. LOWA soon overcame obstacles facing the company and as demand grew, LOWA expanded with their Boots Range to cater for the armed services and military market across the globe.
