Perfect If You Know Your Size

These are my go to winter gaiters. They are great for keeping snow out of my boots while mountaineering and snowshoeing. They are solidly constructed and the fabric is tough enough to put up with moderate wear and tear from crampons / rocks / vegetation. The only frustrating bit is the sizing. Most available sizing from OR is based on shoe sizes, which is not at all helpful. Find the actual product measurements (they’re out there) and compare those to your actual calf measurements.

OR makes the best gaiters around! I ordered these for myself after using a similar version for a number of years in the military. These are pretty much the same with some slight material differences, but hold up just as well as the mil ones.

I've used the gaiters a couple of times when it snows. great protection and coverage, my feet and pants always stay dry. these are heavy duty and easy to use, not lightweight but they do the job.

The Best Gators

I used to be skeptical about gators but I use them almost daily in the summer now. All my coworkers in trail crew use this model and I was convinced to get some. Works great for keeping your feet dry while walking through wet brush and even stream crossings if your fast enough. They are very durable besides the small velcro flap in the front and the work almost just as well without so just cut it off if it's failing or warenty them Outdoor Research is great with that.

Easy to put on and take off. Kept snow out of my hunting boots. Would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for Gaiters.
