Thread: Half price Lowa boots and others

So the Rangers aren't too stiff and hard for bush walking and the like? Because I've got dodgy knees I find hard boots set them off pretty badly. I'm currently running Magnums and those things are great, grippy on the soul and soft enough to not feel like I'm walking on concrete all day. I'm assuming the WXL refers to the width of the boots?

Yes, WXL is wide. The Ranger is "softer" than the Tibet. Look at the specs - especially the "upper" description and name of the Vibram sole.

The "stabilizer" affects the flexibility of the sole and you can GOOGLE the Vibram catalog to read the full specs.

Which is what you should buy even if your feet aren't super wide, I reckon. I have wide feet but I only just fit the tibet WXL, most of my normal shoes are wider than the "wide" tibets...
