Crocodiles Gaiter
The names 'Cordura' and 'GORE-TEX' have both become legendary among outdoor enthusiasts. Both have come to symbolize utter dependability in their respective fields. One item that has helped to nurture this reputation is the Outdoor Research Crocodile Gaiter. Equally legendary and nearly as famous, the Crocodile was the original high-performance weather- and mountain-proof gaiter. The Crocodile hasn't changed much over the years because its design was spot-on from the beginning. Besides having a triple-bartacked Biothane webbing instep strap and an additional tab that holds down the front opening, this Cordura and GORE-TEX masterpiece remains as it was in the beginning.

Great purchase!

I used these on a caving trip. There was a lot more water than anticipated. Even though I walked through thigh high water, these did a good job of repelling water. I got less wet than I would have without the gaiters. Everything cinched down and the fit was good for me. I am small and was worried these might be too loose.

Long lasting
I have had a pair of these for six year and not had a single issues with them, I'm planning on getting a new pair only because the buckle is just starting to rust so I want a back up on hand for when the buckle decides to go. Love them.

Love These Gaiters!
These gaiters are the best. They are very sturdy and fit perfectly over my hiking boots. I wear a size 8 boot and I got the small size. The small works perfect when I'm just wearing leggings/hiking pants/jeans. This is my second pair. I have a medium size as well that I like to wear when I'm wearing my snow pants. They are great for wearing in the snow or on dewy morning hikes and prevent my socks/lower pant legs from getting soaked. My mediums I've had for about 10 years and they are still going strong!

Great accessory!
These are great and work very well in damp environments and deep snow. Great alternative to tall boots!

Saved me on the West Coast Trail
Hiked the West Coast trail in September. These are an absolutely must, they saved me from the mud consistently, allowing my pants/legs to stay clean over the course of the trip. Likewise, these dried pretty quickly overnight

Not good
I have to replace these every 2, sometimes less than 2, years due to what I call the Velcro toe guards. Yes they're guaranteed but dealing with some of their warranty staff is not worth the trouble. There are other outdoor stores that are just as good and are less of a hassle. I'm done with OR. I've asked to be removed from their database but they sent me this. Again.

Great for winter adventures!
I love these for keeping snow out of my boots in the winter. They hold up to my snowshoes and microspikes without getting holes. I also wear them during shoulder and mud season. They add some warmth, so I do need to adjust my layering a bit if I have them on. I just replaced my older pair that were over 10 years old.

Great customer service
Used on a few wintery hikes and they did a great job keeping me dry. One of the buckles broke and I got a replacement very quickly. Looks like the new version has better/stronger buckles. Very happy with the customer service.
