Stamford, CT - OUR PLACE Magazine recently put the LOWA Jannu to the test.

The LOWA Jannu was awarded the 2006 Outside Magazine Gear of the Year award, along with other magazine kudos for this top performer.

Read what this editor has to say about this award-winning boot:

"LOWA, the Bavaria-based bootmaker, gets a top rating for boots that keep our toes warm, dry and safe.

The LOWA Jannu Mid features a glove-leather lining, a sturdy Vibram sole unit and a SPS midsole. Mesh panels keep this boot ventilated for warm days.

Breaking the traditional earth-tone look, the shoe comes in such colors as orange, silver, black, yellow, blue and more.

The low-cuts flew off the shelf. Expect the same for this new mid-cut version. Because of the quality leather lining, these boots are quick to break in."
