  • Gaiters cover the vulnerable tops of your footwear to fully protect your feet from the elements, but in order for them to work they have to be worn correctly. In this video, Katie shows you how to put on your gaiters to make sure they perform their best. Check it out, then shop our selection of gaiters here: www.rei.com/c/...

    I have seen CZcamsrs who hike on trails for long distances, and they frequently use gaiters. An example would be Darwin on the Trail. He uses dirty girl gaiters as do many of the hikers. These are much better for thru hikes as they are smaller than the ones shown in this video.

    I thought gaiters are also to walk through like nettles and thorny brush with protection for the legs, so, those velcro only shutters look badly designed

      Well, I, somebody who has winter hiked a handful of times in the whites, thought it funny that the belt portion does go under your shoe. I imagine this contributes to wearing out the belt a lot unfortunately. Was hoping that wasn’t the case but oh well
