Thread: Half price Lowa boots and others

I just ordered myself some of these. Been wanting some for a while but couldnt cough up the 700.
Be rude not to at 350.

How much did you guys get Tibet's for.. Going through checkout it says I will be charge 230.22 pounds. Which is about $480 was there an amazing sale or something?

I thnk there was a bit of a sale, not sure the exact amount. At that price it will probably push it over the gst limit.

I was charged about 207 euro. Go right through to checkout as you don't have to pay the 19% sales tax.

$356NZD to my door. Check what site you're looking at as they are based in Germany with list prices in Euros not GBP. I think you are seeing a price in €.

I also paid €207. Which was about $350.
It did take longer than I thought to get here though. It was 28 days from when processed

Mine took just over two weeks, I think it mostly depends on NZ customs. Definitely a wicked boot for $350, but they'd gone up in price before my mate could nab some. Once they're over 400 (including freight) you'll probably get stung by customs too.

They've gone down again though, pick up a bargain.

If you make an account and set your address as somewhere in NZ before adding the boots to your cart then it should remove the tax. I changed the currency to australian dollars before making an account (by clicking the flag at the top right) and my account only seems to load on the australian currency version of the website, where tax is excluded for everything. They're showing up as $304 (boot) + $28 (freight) aussie dollars, just under $350 NZD total.

Just under $350 including conversion rate. Bloody good deal. Cheers @stug

Just checked my boots landed $300 instead of $549.99...

Yep my Lowa Z8-S GTX landed will be $283.48NZ done through Pay-Pal, very happy as they are only at H&F so they make a steal on them... what with the bollocks marketing that they were specially designed for the NZ Hunting market, pfffhhhh... Great to have a spare pair now... Thanks for sharing @stug

Quite tempted by a new pair of boots actually, get in and use the tax refund before the lawyer eats it all. All my hunting stuff is Lower North Island so bush, stream crossings etc but I'd love to get out and into some of the high parts of the SI soonish are the Lowa Z8-S GTX's still the way to go for that?

Probably want the tibet or ranger for higher SI hunting. I've heard the Z8's are a bit slippery on wet rocks. I have the Tibets for SI above bushline hunting.

Rangers or Tibets, if you mainly hunt N.I I'd go for rangers, I've just bought a pair of Tibets that I'll be using for my S.I missions.

Got a pair of rangers, like them except for how they have worn in on one foot, can't get the first hook laced up easily, get started on a wall and 5Min later it's popped off and have to redo it. It's just the one boot though so figure it's how they moulded. Not the best grip from the Vibram sole but it's on slippery rocks where most boots would slip

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?
