not good enough
you need to be an expert with knots to keep the lace tied...lost a lace from one gaiter one the first day of a 6 day trek. spent the rest of the 6 days trying to keep the other gaiter tied down
Gaiters
Bought these to keep out the powder snow from my boots on a recent trip to Finland. Did the job well. Ordered one day, received the next. Great job Snowys and at an excellent price
Grasshopper Gaiters
Great value for money. My first set of Gaiters and very happy. My only gripe would be that they don't breath and you sweat. But hey i knew that when i brought them. I'll upgrade to breathable one's in the future but for now they do what i need them too.
Grasshopper Gaitors
Great value, comfortable to wear.
SS Grasshopper Gaiters
I wore these on the Overland Track in Tassie recently. They performed really well in keeping the mud out of my boots. The laces are not as convenient as straps and the material doesn't breath, however for the price they are very good and do the job.
Sizes1 answer
Just wondering what the difference in sizes are between small/medium and large/xlarge? Cheers
G'day Eliza,
The Small/Medium is 39cm high and the Large/X Large is 42cm high. On the packaging, it indicates that the Small/Medium is for European 37-42, and the Large/X Large is 41-47.
Is this material breathable or at least doesn't get too hot to wear during summer?1 answer
I'm going to do the Southcoast track this summer. I like that it is light and budget-friendly, but would like to know if it is comfortable to wear in long walks during the summer months when it can get hot.
G'day Olivia,
The Sea to Summit Grasshopper Gaiters are probably the most breathable out of the entire range due to the light/thin 600D Polyester Fabric, however, I would still assume that you will find them quite warm to wear through summer months. I'm not sure what solution you could look at however to get the best of the situation.
Snake proof1 answer
Do these offer protection from snake bite.
G'day Sharon,
Sea to Summit offer a large range of gaiters including the Grasshopper Gaiters, which will help prevent a bite, but can never offer 100% protection against snake bites.
If you're concerned, the most densely woven, puncture resistant gaiter currently made by Sea to Summit is the Quagmire Canvas Gaiter. The Quagmire provides at least 39cm coverage up your leg delivering peace of mind no matter where you are bushwalking.
Are they waterproof?1 answer
Will they resist water walking through shallow stream?
G'day Ruth,
In general most gaiters are mainly to protect you from debris, rough terrain and snakes - so they're not made to be 100% waterproof.
The Sea to Summit Grasshopper Gaiters are made from 600D Polyester, so they should theoretically repel water to some degree.
If you make sure that your gaiters are put on tightly, and you're wearing waterproof shoes then that will minimise the risk of water coming through but it won't prevent it entirely.
