The Lowa Fortux GTX Mid is an ultra-light, waterproof hiking boot with 4mm flat laces. Thicker laces would not fit through the four narrow fabric sleeves on each side of the tongue. An exact replacement lace for the Navy/Dune boots appears to be 150cm Zamberlan Octave Blue 4mm flat boot laces MPN LACEFT-DBO. The Fortux has Lowa Trac C rubber soles. As with all Gore-tex boots, these boots are guaranteed by Gore-tex to remain waterproof for the life of the boot without regard to time.
