    Likes: I use this gaiter on the snowshoe camping trip to Yosemite. It kept my shoes dry and warm. My shoes are size 8. The M fits perfectly. I highly recommend it.

    Dislikes: Really nothing I do not like.

    Likes: Finally bought a new pair. Had the old ones for several years. Used them ice climbing and mountaineering on countless trips. These are the gold standard for mountaineering gaiters.

    Dislikes: Pricey but worth it.

    Likes: I use them primarily for snowshoeing. The gaiters are durable and fit well. The velcro appears very strong. Front side velcro is a plus for putting them on. They would probably be way too warm for summer use, but I did not buy them for that.

    Dislikes: A bit pricey, but they should last a long time. The extra velcro flap at the bottom is welcome as a extra durability, security feature, but does fight me a bit by flipping over onto the main velcro when I am putting them on. If I become too unhappy with, snip, snip with pair of scissors and it is gone.
