Outdoor Research Rocky Mountain Low Gaiters

Outdoor Research Rocky Mountain Low Gaiters

Lightweight and supple for comfort throughout long miles in rough terrain, the Outdoor Research Rocky Mountain Low Gaiters are sturdy enough to withstand many seasons of bushwhacking, scree surfing, beach walking and cross-country hiking. Made from 8 oz nylon packcloth, these boot gaiters are uncoated so they remain breathable to help regulate moisture and temperature in your hiking boots. At 9.5 inches tall they provide over-the-ankle coverage with a wide elastic band at the top, a long-lasting 1-inch wide Velcro closure and a double riveted bootlace hook to keep gaiters secure and debris outside. The instep strap is made from practically bullet-proof Hypalon so you wont have to replace a piece of rope or cord every time you walk through it and an adjustable buckle gives you a custom fit that is easy to adjust as you switch from hiking shoes to cross country ski boots. Made for men and women in unisex sizing, these OR gaiters are most importantly made for off-trail adventurers.

these are excellent!
i've used these on almost daily hikes during the past several months - over leather above the ankle hiking boots - and i couldn't be happier with their performance, ease of use, low profile, and light weight. i highly recommend as a summer/fall gaiter. thanks OR!!

Great Product, Good Price
I really have enjoyed using these. I bought them for an outdoor adventure in Maine. They have held up great and I could not be happier for the price. I would highly recommend these.

Perfect performance!
I bought these for my son to use in the Alaskan back country this summer. His geological expedition involved climbing numerous steep talus-covered slopes over a 3 week period in various weather conditions. They kept all debris out of his boots the entire trip. Highly recommended.

Like Them Alot
I've given the pair I've owned hard use hiking, back country skiing, snowshoeing, and climbing. I'm often wearing a pant with a stretch cuff that pulls over the cuffs of big boots (ski boots, plastic climbing boots) but there are still lots of days each year when I need gaiters over approach shoes or lightweight hiking shoes. I like these gaiters because they're light and non-bulky when stuffed in the pack, yet effective in keeping snow or vegetation out when I need them to keep shoes clear of snow, dirt, plant matter or scree. My pair has stood up to plenty of abuse in what I would guess to be 25 or 30 days of use. And using these I've found I prefer short gaiters over tall gaiters in everything but deep powder because they let my legs breathe so much better.
