Recommend me some gaiters

[Alreetmiowdmuka]

Hi anyone got a good set of gaiters they'd recommend ie water proof hard wearing easy to put on

I've had a few pairs and by far my favourite are these Ventile ones.

I have a couple of pairs of brasher gortex ones, as good now as when I bought them.

My Rab Hispar ones are serving me well

I use Outdoor Research Crocodiles with my boots, or OR Salamanders with my trail shoes if I'm hacking through heather and bog.

They're both going well after a numbers of years and if either were to fail I'd be happy to replace with the same.

I've gone away from gaiters to goretex lined boots and softshell trousers with built in snow gaiters. All year winter and summer munro bagging. I did have the original goretex yetis which were good.

I've got a pair of Barbour wax cotton ones that have lasted for years, would definitely recommend them.

I've got a pair of Blacks own make which i got in i think 1980, very tough, i still wear them, not very breathable though.

Check out aldis, they all so have them in.

Black islanders are pretty good.

I can second the Outdoor Research Crocodiles... make a massive difference for me at this time of year

I used to have a pair of Outdoor Research Bugout gaitors that I liked really well. However, when they wore out I got the Equinox Mountain gaitors and I like them even more than the OR gaitors. The nice feature of the Equinox that differs from many of the other manufacturers, is the replaceable strap that runs under your foot. When the cord wears out, you just replace it with more shock cord or para cord, and you're back in business.

Laksen gaiters are good

Another vote for OR Crocodiles, without a doubt the best gaiters available. No zip, step in design, high quality, various sizes, not stupidly expensive, what's not to like?

I am on my second pair in about 15 years of hard use including beating and ice climbing, the first pair are still in occasional by my girlfriend. I wore mine for two weeks hind stalking earlier in the winter and two of the other stalkers were very keen to get a pair, they were very Impressed and this is from guys that work in the Highlands 52 weeks of the year and know a thing or two about kit.

Use mine all the time these days. Never know when I'm going to be trudging through mud, or tall wet grass... and the tics are still very active as well (gaiters help keep them out of your pant legs)
