Description of Kahtoola LEVAgaiter Mid Black Medium

Adjustable instep strap is made from a durable thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). A rounded design better interfaces with a variety of outsoles and adjusts to fit different sizes and profiles of footwear. Three-Layer GORE-TEX is waterproof and breathable from top to bottom, and is lightweight, durable, and packs down easily. An attached lace hook secures fit. An asymmetrical zipper entry provides increased comfort as the ankle flexes. The zipper slider folds down at the top to prevent unzipping, and a flap behind zipper offers extra comfort and moisture protection. An elasticized drawcord with a toggle lock seals out elements from entering the top of the gaiter. Soft undergarment stitching is comfortable against skin.

A Must-Have for Climbing Enthusiasts

These gaiters are a game-changer for any climbing enthusiast.They are made of durable materials and provide excellent protection against debris and moisture. Through trial and error, I found that these gaiters are perfect for moderate to aggressive climbs. The adjustable closure ensures a secure fit and the mid-length design helps to prevent bunching. The only downside to these gaiters is their price point - they are a bit pricey but definitely worth the investment. Overall a great addition to…

Pros
  • Provides excellent protection from snow, mud, and debris during outdoor activities.
Cons
  • Its black color may make it less suitable for some outdoor activities that require high visibility or safety.

Not Durable in the Wild

After I put it to the test on multiple climbs, I found the gaiters to be lacking in durability for their price. Although they provided good protection from debris and kept snow out of my boots, the fabric began to wear and tear after just a few uses..

Pros
  • Good protection from debris and snow.
Cons
  • Lacking durability for the price.

Quality product but no taped seams

They look great and are well made. Back because I need a smaller size (ordered L) to use with sneakers instead of boots. Please note this is Gortex but the seams are not sealed. If I had left them, I would definitely be missing all the stitching, including the zipper stitching. For what they cost I'm disappointed that they don't have factory sealed seams.

Pros
  • Camping and Hiking
Cons
  • The list will be long.
