| Product Review: Cover ground quickly in the backcountry, cruise on skis, kick steps up a snowfinger, or blast through a long bushwhack approach, the Verglas Gaiter from Outdoor Research is designed to move fast and carry light. An ultralight, waterproof and breathable 3-layer Ventia leg section, matched with a coated 500-denier Cordura boot section makes this gaiter pack-friendly. The asymetrically cut boot section provides a secure fit with leather hiking boots or plastic mountaineering boots. A nylon-supported rubber instep strap keeps the gaiter flush with your boot, sealing out snow. The 1-1-2-inch wide hook and loop front closure can be offset to make room for insulated pants. |
