2015 saw him return stronger from Tasman’s excellent domestic campaign and he went on to start 12 games for the Chiefs, score 5 tries and also net himself 3 yellow cards. The Chiefs were once again eliminated in the quarter-finals in 2015, but went one step further in 2016, reaching the semi-finals before going down to New Zealand rivals and eventual winners, the Hurricanes. Lowe started 15 times and scored a career high 7 tries to firmly establish himself as a fans-favourite.

On 6 March 2017, Lowe signed for Irish province Leinster in the Pro14 ahead of the 2017–18 season.

Notably, he scored a try in the quarter finals of the Champions cup, seeing off the reigning champions Saracens. Lowe achieved winners’ medals in both the European Champions Cup and Pro14 in his first season.
