User Image

The alpine gaiter is part of a collection of gaiters produced by Mountain Equipment to cater to different needs or different users. The alpine gaiter is a tough, waterproof gaiter, with a reinforced lower leg for use with crampons.

Unlike many gaiters the Alpine gaiter comes in 3 sizes rather than the "one size fits all" that some gaiters out there have. The underfoot strap is also replaceable meaning if you break it the gaiter can easily be fixed to fight another day.

However they do cost £45 retail, (available for less if you look around) so they are certainly not a cheap option, but they do represent a quality investment.
