Outdoor Research Crocodile Waterproof Mid-Calf Gaiters for Hiking & Snow

Crocodile™ Mid-Height Gaiters – Rugged Weather Protection for Alpine Adventures

Engineered for demanding mountain conditions, the Crocodile™ Mid-Height Gaiters deliver unbeatable defense against debris, mud, and harsh weather. Built with GORE-TEX 3L ePE fabric (bluesign® approved), these gaiters offer 100% waterproof yet breathable performance, keeping your feet dry without trapping moisture. The ultra-durable 70D nylon upper and abrasion-resistant Cordura® lower panel ensure long-lasting protection on rocky trails and wet terrain.

Designed for hikers, mountaineers, and alpinists, these gaiters feature an adjustable cuff cinch and offset hook-and-loop closure for a secure, customized fit. The replaceable PU instep strap allows quick adjustments without removing the gaiters—ideal when weather shifts unexpectedly. A boot lace hook and cam lock system keeps the gaiters firmly anchored, while color-coded closures help distinguish left from right in low-light conditions.

Weighing just 8.29 oz (235 g), the slim-profile design balances lightweight comfort with rugged durability. Perfect for mixed alpine environments, these gaiters excel in wet trails, scree slopes, and unpredictable mountain weather.
