Waterproof gaiters are worn over the shoe to protect the lower part of the leg from the elements. Dry feet are the key to keeping warm whatever you're doing, whether tromping through the East Anglian fens, skiing down a Swiss mountain piste or thundering along a rain-soaked autobahn on a Harley!
Check out our leg gaiters here at Gear-Zone, from Extremities Entagaiters or their GTX XCR Nova Gore-Tex gaiters, to the renowned Outdoor Research Crocodile Gaiters and their Verglas gaiters for men and women.
