Founded in 1923 in Jetzendorf, Bavaria, by Lorenz Wagner, the son of a shoemaker, LOWA was born from craftsmanship passed down through generations. From the very beginning, Lorenz developed lasts, models, and soles that laid the foundations for the company’s success. Despite difficult periods, especially in the 1950s, the brand reinvented itself thanks to Sepp and Berti Lederer, the founder’s daughter. In the 1990s, a new era propelled LOWA to become one of the world’s leading outdoor footwear manufacturers. Rooted in a family tradition where shoemaking and music intertwined, the brand now embodies German excellence in hiking and mountaineering footwear, combining innovation, durability, and comfort to support every adventure.
