Review-Mountain Hardwear Gaiters

After hiking in the Smokies for 5 days, and making what I’m guessing is about 15 creek crossings, I think I can say these Mountain Hardwear Gaiters work. As a matter of fact, they worked so well, I would step in the deeper water to avoid the slippery rocks and busting it.

They’ve fairly easy to put on. The boot straps are very durable and appear to be replaceable. Mine show only the scratch marks of walking on rocks. The lace hook is a difference design than I’ve seen before. It hooks the lace from the underside, instead of over it.

I would definitely buy these again. Of course, wear these with your waterproof hiking boots.
