Trekmates Replacement Gaiter Straps | Millets

I appreciated mid-height main body’s thin, water-resistant durable stretch material with reinforced edging for a comfortable, close fit against the lower leg and upper shoe. Our replacement gaiter straps are made of super hard-wearing, pressure injected high-density webbing.Hiking gaiters are light, low-investment adventure accessories worn over footwear that provide extra lower leg and shoe protection. The gaiter is a protective garment that can be easily taken off, shaken and then inspected to remove any unwanted hitchhikers.

Trekmates Reinforced Replacement Walking Gaiter Straps - (10

There’s no better way to test leg gaiters than trudging through the Adirondack Mountains of New York. The main body is constructed out of a durable, lightweight, quick-dry nylon/spandex blend fabric that provides excellent protection from mud and water. My hiking partner and I tested six gaiters of various styles in the rugged wilderness of Northern New York. As we are all slowly getting back to something like normal, rest assured, your health and safety are still our top priorities and at the heart of every decision we make.

I also enjoy that most of these solutions would probably solve my other gaiter-related pet peeve; the nylon accessory cord I have been using accumulates so much snow and ice that I have avoided using my lows altogether in the winter. With features like waterproofing, adjustable straps, zippers, Velcro, and variable heights, anyone spending time outdoors can benefit from having a gaiter set in their gear closet. A side-closure YKK zipper, toggled elastic top cinch, plastic lace hook that works with D-rings, and hard plastic adjustable DuraLink instep strap are integrated to fit them securely.
