A few years ago I discovered a brilliant but simple product - Dry Walker river crossing gaiters. For £16 a pair including P&P these large plastic bags, with laces to secure them round your ankles and thighs, and a reasonbale sole for grip, did the job to perfection!

The trouble is: the supplier seems to have disappeared! Can anyone throw any light on this? Has he gone out of business or just relocated? He was in Edinburgh at www.drywalker.co.uk and variously at 95 Bellevue Road, EH7 4DG (0131 556 9412) and 46 Rodney Street (0131 477 7222). None of these means of contact works any more.

So much easier, simpler and cheaper than Yeti gaiters!

which has an email address you could try.  The address given is the Bellevue Road one above though, so might not be any use.
