Gore-Tex Gaiters – A Must Have Protection

Gore-Tex Gaiters A Must Have Protection

Gore-Tex Gaiters A Must Have Protection

A lot of hikers have gaiters. Some of the reasons they have them is protection - against gravel and mud as well as sticks and stones getting into shoes. Also, some get them for snake protection. Such gaiters are generally knee-high and manufactured out of durable material, such as Gore-Tex, which is a waterproof/breathable fabric.

In snowy regions Gore-Tex gaiters (not goretex gaiters - nobody says it, but a lot of people write it incorrectly) are a must have in order to keep snow out of the boots. Basically, they are leg coverings that reach from the lower leg to the instep. In addition to keeping water out of your boots, they also banish burs, stones, twigs as well as grass seeds. One can have standard hiking gaiters in the snow however they get wet and freeze solid overnight. Therefore, Gore-Tex gaiters are generally regarded as a lot better for the snow. If you want to snowshoe in deep snow and do not want to stay on snow-packed trails, wear these in order to keep snow out of the boots or shoes.

They are good in keeping the snow out of the top of the boots; naturally, depending on weather conditions. These are also a good choice for backcountry hikers as well as for many outdoor activities such as outdoor, wildlife, and nature photography.

The Gore-Tex material is a lot weaker when compared to the canvas. Therefore, do not ever wear your quite pricey Gore-Tex gaiters in the bush.

Gore-Tex gaiters are better than puttees; however puttees are slightly better when compared to non-goretex gaiters.

Gore-Tex gaiters are good because of the very small body surface they're covering. Gore-tex is a coating which is generally applied to nylon/synthetic material in order to make it waterproof from the outside in and breathable the reverse.

Finally, they have one more use, once a hiker reaches camp. Basically, they're great for sitting on. Needless to say, the inner surface is much cleaner as well as drier when compared to the outer surface. Therefore, hiker can sit on it, and put his food bags on while cooking dinner. And if you are a wildlife photographer they can serve as an emergency digital camera/lens cover.
