LEG GAITERS

Rocky Mountain High Gaiters

Keep the cold, snow, mud and water out of your boots!

The Rocky Mountain High is a trim-fitting, front-opening gaiter designed for people who want the advantages of a Velcro front closure, but don't need the durability of Crocs. It is just the thing for hiking boots and lighter weight footwear. This gaiter is available in two versions, Gore-Tex and packcloth. The leg section of the first is Taslan Gore-Tex fabric. A heavy-duty nylon/rubber instep strap holds the bottom edge in place. The Packcloth Rocky Mountain High features uncoated packcloth in the leg section and an instep cord, making this a great value in a full-length gaiter. The foot section of both is made of coated packcloth with an elastic bottom edge for a tight fit. Both versions have a top strap closure of 3/4 in. webbing and a cam buckle for a non-slip lock.
