My Lowa renegades are easily the most comfortable hiking shoe I've ever worn, however I struggle to recommend then on a buy it for life sub. The sole compound is rather soft and I wear down the tread in about 2 years of near daily wear. The cemented construction makes them non-resolable to the best of my knowledge.
Although, to be fair to the boot, I wear through the heels of almost all my shoes extremely fast, and the waterproofness always holds up until replacement. They'll likely remain my go to hiking boot until I find an option I can resole.
