These extra-tough gaiters are built to endure harsh temperatures, rough terrain and use with crampons or skis. Extra circumference around the entire leg allows for the thick layers of clothing worn in extreme conditions. Sized to fit over plastic or leather mountaineering boots or double leather telemark boots; these do not fit boots with buckles. 3-layer Gore-Tex®/Taslan® nylon uppers offer waterproof, breathable protection; lined with Cordura® nylon for durability. Super abrasion-resistant Cordura® nylon lowers are lined with nylon packcloth to deflect nicks from skis and crampons. Hook-and-loop front openings allow quick on/off; upper edge cinch straps with hook and loop closure ensure gaiters stay up, even in deep snow. Nylon-supported, rubber instep straps feature rivets at the attachment points; straps are removable and replaceable in the field.
