Yatta Life Cordura Boot Gaiters
Wet socks end more winter hikes than cold does. Our knee-high gaiters seal the gap between your boots and pants, so you can wade through deep snow, slush and spring mud and still finish the day with dry feet.
$80 CAD · 4 sizes
Every step into fresh snow pushes it over the top of your boots, where it melts into your socks. Gaiters close that gap for snowshoeing, winter hiking and breaking trail.
The waterproof Cordura lower shields your boots and lower legs from slush, splashes and shallow creek crossings, so your boots stay drier inside.
In spring and fall, gaiters keep mud, small stones and trail debris out of your boots and protect your pants from wet brush and thorns.
Choose by your shoe size. Gaiters are designed to fit over high-cut hiking and winter boots.

The lower section is 1000D Cordura nylon with 3000 mm water resistance, and the upper is a 3-layer fabric rated 3000/3000 waterproof/breathable. They're built to shed snow, slush, rain and splashes. Like any gaiter, they won't keep you dry if you wade in above the top.
If you're walking in snow deeper than your boot tops, yes. Gaiters stop snow from getting into your boots and melting into your socks, which keeps your feet warmer and drier on longer outings.
