At the car, before you set off

Pull the gaiter up over the trouserHem goes inside, not over the top.
Run the strap under the instepIt sits in the arch, forward of the heel.
Buckle it snug and take up the slackSnug is what stops it riding up.
Pull the top drawcord and walkMid-calf is high enough.

When you get back

Take them off before you get in the car
Hose or rinse them, then hang them upEverything is on the outside face by design.
Roll them up into a coat pocket87 grams the pair, so they go with you next time.

The one thing worth getting right is the instep strap. Loose is the reason a gaiter rides up, not size. Pull it snug enough that the gaiter cannot lift off the top of your boot and they will sit where you put them all walk.

About three ounces across both legs, which is roughly a phone. They roll down small enough to live in a coat pocket or a glovebox, and that matters more than it sounds. A pair left at home has never stopped anything.

No consumables and nothing to reapply. Rinse them off, hang them up, and they are ready for the next walk.

Finally stopped fighting with my pant legs

I’m in tall grass and brush all the time and used to tuck my pants into my socks, which never stayed put for long. These are way easier. I pull them over the bottom of my pants, run the strap under my boot, snug them down and they stay where I put them. The biggest thing for me is being able to look down and actually see that the loose opening around my ankle is covered instead of wondering if my pant leg worked itself loose again.

Straight answers

What people ask before they buy a pair.

The questions that actually come in. If yours is not here, email helpyonderpets@gmail.com and a person will answer it.

They close the route ticks use. Ticks do not drop out of trees, they sit on grass and low scrub with their front legs out and grab onto whatever brushes past, then climb upward looking for skin. Your ankle is where they get on and the gap at your trouser hem is where they get in. A gaiter covers both. It is a physical barrier rather than a chemical one, so there is nothing to reapply and nothing to wear off.
Yes, and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling badly. A gaiter covers your lower leg, which is where the great majority get on, but it is not a bodysuit and ticks can reach you from an overhanging branch or off your dog. Think of it as removing the easiest way in, not as a reason to skip the check on the way home.
They are built to go over the footwear you already own, from trainers to walking boots. The strap runs under the instep and buckles on the outside, so the fit does not depend on the sole, and the drawcord at the top closes them in around the calf. One pair covers the range.
87 grams the pair. That is about three ounces, or roughly the weight of a phone split across both legs. They roll up small enough to sit in a coat pocket, which matters more than it sounds: gaiters left in the boot of the car do not stop anything.
They cover from the ankle to mid-calf and nothing else, so there is far less of you covered than there would be under a pair of long socks. Most people forget they have them on within ten minutes. Summer is also when you want them most, since that is when ticks are busiest and when everyone is in shorter socks.
They are designed to go over trousers and seal the hem. With bare legs there is nothing to seal against and the skin above the gaiter is uncovered, so you lose most of the point. If you walk in shorts, these are not the answer.
The instep strap is what holds them, not friction against your leg, so they stay where you put them. Buckle the strap snug under the sole rather than loose. If a gaiter is riding up, it is almost always the strap rather than the size.
A tightly woven outer face with a smooth finish, chosen because it gives a tick nothing to grip and because seeds, burrs and cleavers slide off it rather than embedding. The strap and buckle are the parts that take the wear, so those are the parts worth the money.
They shed dew, light rain and wet grass, which is what they are for. They are not a wader and they are not sealed at the seams, so a river crossing will get through them. For a morning walk through soaking grass they keep your trouser hems dry, which is the everyday version of the same problem.
Hose them or rinse them under a tap, then hang them to dry. Any dirt is on the outside face by design. Do not put them through a hot machine wash, and do not tumble dry them, or the strap and elastic will not thank you.
That is who we made them for, because a dog takes you off the path and into the long grass twice a day whether you like it or not. They work exactly the same for hiking, fishing, shooting, gardening and fieldwork. The tick does not know why you are in the grass.
Grass seeds, burrs, cleavers and brambles, all of which pick the same route up your leg. Anyone who has spent an evening pulling foxtails out of socks will get the value immediately.
There is only one, and it is meant to be that way. The instep strap and the top drawcord take up the slack, so the same pair works over trainers or over walking boots, and over slim trousers or heavier winter ones. Nothing to measure and nothing to get wrong at checkout.
Shipping is free on every order with no minimum, and most arrive within 5 to 7 business days. You have 60 days to change your mind, and we would rather you walked in them properly before deciding, so mud on them is not a problem.
