I just finished a 165 mile hike in Maine and use these leggings every day. You have held up well. Although the cord attaching the gaiters to the boot was frayed (lots of rough rocks and roots), this was normal. You really don't need a cable. The gaiters stayed in place with no cord. The gaiters were very effective in protecting my boots from dirt and keeping my socks dry from the morning dew. I highly recommend them when short leggings are needed. David Sheffield
