Review on Kahtoola INSTAgaiter Low: Ultimate Protective Gear for Trail Adventures by Derek Helvie

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great down to the zip

These are *great* and I highly recommend them, especially for hiking in sandy areas. The only problem is that the zipper is very cheap and none of the zippers work properly. I have to start at the collar of the boot with the zipper, work hard to make it work, and then place it on the boot. Taking it off is the same: I have to take it off with the zipper still closed and then work with the zipper for a while to unzip it. I'm not sure how long the zippers will last before they break completely: I've worn them 4 times.

Pros
  • Highly rated by testers for support and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
