| Vic Hanson | Good value and protection | | 
Voted 5/5 | I used these gaiters from the Mexican border to the Sierras on my Pacific Crest Trail hike, and was very happy with them. They were great in the deserts of S. California for keeping the sand out of my low running shoes without being too hot. My only regret was that I lost them in the Sierras because I wasn't using them when there were a lot of streams to cross. I had them on the back of my pack and they must have fallen off. I hope they were helpful to whoever found them!
I bought a new pair before I returned to Peru and they are perfect here during the dry season for the stickers and thorns along the old unmantained trails that I love to explore.
