WELL THOUGHT OUT PRODUCT

Easy to attach, functional and breathable gaiters with readily adjustable and replaceable under foot straps. They also seem as tough as any gaiters of similar weight, and don't cost the earth, although cheaper eVent ones are now available.
The ends of the elastic drawcord at the top of each gaiter are sewn into fabric seams, so once the elastic perishes they are very difficult to replace, even if you have pretty good sewing skills, which I don't.
I much prefer not wearing gaiters, but if it's very muddy or there's snow on the ground then I use these, which are about the best I've had experience of. There's not too much excess fabric to catch on things and the fit around my boots is close enough to prevent debris or water finding a way in. They tops stay put just below the knee -- or at least did until the drawcords perished, after much use.
