Reviews | Dow Williams | Exos Gaiters | | 
Voted 5/5 | Gone through several pair of these. This is my gaiter of choice for 99% of all conditions, from summer alpine to winter ice climbing in Canada. I believe most clothing gear, from jackets to boots are sold too heavy, gaiters are no exception. Many are sold more gaiter than they need. This gaiter is hardcore. Will take crampon hits pretty well. Easy to seal up holes with tent sealer or something similar. One of the unique features is the shear tab on top. This allows for a snugger fit and stays in place. OR has made a name in gaiters, more to do with durability than about anything else. You will have to work hard to destroy this gaiter. | | Posted Jan 31, 2007 10:50 pm |
