LOWA Blog

There are over 10 million Americans participating in alpine sports including mountaineering, rock and ice climbing. We believe as an outdoor footwear company, it’s critical for us to support organizations that help to advocate for the climbing community and the landscapes that are recreated on. This is why LOWA is a proud sponsor of the American Alpine Club (AAC). Founded in 1902, the AAC promotes and preserves the climbing way of life.
