Outdoor Research Crocodiles Gaiter - Women's

The original do-it-all gaiter of mountaineers, backcountry skiers, and off-trail adventurers, the Outdoor Research Women's Crocodiles Gaiters are designed for ladies who handle anything. Designed specifically for women, these gaiters feature increased volume in the calf and a shorter overall length. The durable Taslan Gore-Tex® leg section, much like the Crocodile Gaiter's namesake, creates an impenetrable hide-like shield against snow, rocks and every hiker's bane, the thorny Devil's Club. The 1000d Cordura boot section, lined with burly, coated 8 oz. packcloth, resists the abuses dealt from ski edges, crampons and general wear. The water-resistant coating on the packcloth faces the Cordura layer, thereby protecting the coating from boot abrasion and insuring a much longer life for these gaiters. A 2in-wide hook-and-loop front closure offers enough range to accommodate leather and plastic boots as well as light or heavy insulating layers.

Bottom Line: Often imitated, never bettered, the Crocodile will give you confidence to hike through any conditions.

My First Pair

And probably my last considering how durable these things seem to be. I'm a newbie with crampons so I'm still constantly rubbing against the gaiters quite a bit, but I've not seen any evidence of wear yet. Easy on/off, but once they're on they're not going anywhere. Good fit for a very generalized product.

Are sizes based on shoe size??

Not necessarily. If you are a medium shoe-sized person, a medium will probably fit fine, etc. However, for smaller/larger shoes, get a smaller/larger gaiter. For example, I wear a small gaiter with my running shoes (not this gaiter, a different Outdoor Research gaiter) and an XL with my big enormous plastic boots.

THE BEST!

Absolutely Bomber! I climb the Colorado mountains and put these through the wringer. I have had a pair of these for 6 years, albeit the mens version since I don't think they made womens then. They are just now getting a little ragged and I have used them A LOT. They have withstood many close encounters with ice axes, trekking poles, snowshoe cleats and crampons...OR is the best!

Even my mom can deal with these, easy to put on and adjust. Comfy and don't slip down or move around when I'm trotting around in the deep pow with my pooch!

The Croc Gaiter

By: (139)

This gaiter rocks! The croc gaiter stays up on your leg better than any other gaiter that I have used and doesn't shift around at all. They are easy to put on and stay there very securely. My only negative to this gaiter is that it doesn't do well in the hot temps, you tend to sweat a ton under them, they don't breathe extremely well. But for snow or moderate temps, this gaiter is unparalleled. I have never had it tear with a crampon on either.
