Snug and secure

These gaiters are great in the snow. They keep your pants dry and keep everything out of your boots that you don't want. They fit snug and secure and also work with thicker laces that come on double plastic mountaineering boots.
My only issue was that the seem split where the velcro strip meets the cordura (I had a older version). It started fraying and the cordura slipped away. They still worked fine but that's not what you want. OR is replacing them no questioned asked. Great company and customer service.
UPDATE: Less than a week after sending my old Crocs in, the brand news ones arrived today and I must say that these seem more solidly constructed than my last pair which was an older version. Kudos to OR for taking care of their customers.
