Walking gaiters

[Tomcoles]

Hi everyone I am looking to buy some walking gaiters. What I want is a really tough material. Strong under strap. Green or brown. I don't want to spend loads. I just need some advice and where to get them from.
If anyone has any they want to trade I may have something that would take your fancy.

British Army canvas ones are great - nice steel strap that runs under the heel. Very usable and cheap as chips on Ebay and surplus stores.
Hope this helps,
Phil

I spotted these the other day and I think I'm going to have a pop myself; I like to wear a good gaiter and these look strong and practical. Also, and this is the biggy for me, easy to get on and off, I hate the modern zip up front or back, they're a PIA.

I'm still wearing the one's I got from Blacks back in the 70's. But Aldi have them in on a regular basis & they are cheap, mind looking at whats on offer now maybe its time I upgraded....

I have some Trailwise ones and I was very disappointed to have to replace one of the zips a few years ago.

I expect a bit more than 25 years out of my kit you know...

I have brasher gtx ones and they are a little sweaty unless its cold outside.

Ive used the British army ones and they're great and bomb proof! I was fancying the wynchester ones but ended up picking up a set from a surplus store and restoring them myself. In all honesty by the time id finished I probably didnt save anything but it kept me out of trouble for a while They're much more "traditional" looking and nice and small to fit in your pack BUT are only short and dont feel as well made but I guess it depends what you're after
