Description

A light, stretchy gaiter for long distances. It fits around your shoe and ankle and keeps pebbles, sand and dirt out of your trail shoe. You pull it easily over your shoe.

Firmly in place with a replaceable strap. An adjustable Spectra cord under your foot keeps the gaiter in position, and the strap can be replaced when it is worn. Reflective material all around makes you more visible in the dark.

You notice the difference on loose ground. On sandy paths, gravel and in riverbeds your shoe stays cleaner. In wet crossings the back can ride up, letting some sand in.

Not sure? Choose this one if you want a light gaiter for long runs on loose trails. If you want a gaiter that rides up less behind the heel, look at the FK Gaiter.

heel goede gaiters

Deze gaiters hebben hun werk perfect gedaan! Ik heb ze gebruikt op de Fishermen's trail in Portugal, waar veel mul zand getrotseerd moet worden. Ik had in combinatie met mijn lage wandelschoenen geen korreltje zand in mijn schoenen.
