The Lowa Zepher always looked like a good arid country boot. If I can just wear out the half dozen or so other boots I have I will give these a try. They have enough leather on them to turn most thorn and with Turtle Skin gaiters they would be impervious. Should work well for dove hunting in the heat too. One pair of Lowa's I had went through three pairs of Vibram soles before I retired them, I hope the quality is still there.
