Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters

Cover ground quickly in the backcountry or blast through a bushwhack approach; these gaiters are designed to move fast and carry light. Ultralight, waterproof and breathable 3-layer Ventia™ section extends down outside of leg for maximum breathability. Low-profile leg shape reduces snagging. Rugged unlined 500-denier Cordura® nylon foot section resists snow and rain while offering excellent durability where you need it most. Cordura rises higher on inside of ankles for best protection. Shaped leg tapers slightly at ankles for a sleek fit. Easy-access hook and loop closures open in front for quick on/off plus they can be micro-adjusted for a custom fit. Asymmetrically shaped bottom edge is curved to fit boots evenly with no gaps, keeping dirt, twigs, scree and snow out of boots. Secure strap and buckle top closures keep gaiters from slipping down legs. Low-profile cam buckle and 3/4" wide nylon webbing distributes pressure and won't cut into leg. Double riveted boot lace hooks grab laces, helping keep gaiters in place. Nylon-supported rubber instep straps offer excellent durability and easy adjustment; loops above buckles keep strap end from flapping. Average weight: 7.4 ounces per pair.
