Crocodiles Gaiter

Durable Gaiters

These gaiters have seen a lot of miles in rough terrain. I have owned them for 6 years, and they are still waterproof and as functional as the day I bought them. They may not be the lightest gaiter, but I would hazard to say they are the most durable.

Durable and waterproof

I wore these on a late high mountain hunt and they kept my lower legs and ankles dry. Once you get the buckles adjusted you can get these on and off relatively quickly. Great for any season where there is wet brush or snow.

These gaiters have held up well through Alaskan bush whacking adventures. They are a bit heavier than most summer adventures would call for but keep out all the litter and scree.

Great Gaiters

I bought these for mountain climbing, backcountry hiking, hunting and working as a wildlife conservation officer. Highly recommend.

Amazing, highly recommend.

Durable and super simple to use. Relatively comfortable as well. Perfect for morning walks through the woods when there’s a ton of dew or for breaking brush when hunting. Great product.

My favorite gaiters from OR. Great for thick trails and for wet hikes.

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.
