Need help buying Gaiters!!

Oh, I have decided on getting Kenetrek's. Just not sure about the snow pattern. I think there are too many times where it is possible it would be a distraction to the animals. Thoughts?

Would some fabric dye fix the problem?

If it ain't broken, don't fix it.....it ain't broken.

Prolly true. My camo is never coordinated anyways. In fact I bet my hunting attire would be considered a camo mismatch joke by most. I don't think wearing the same attire head to toe would help me anyways

Another vote for the Sitka Stormfronts. The 2010 version with the internal buckle system is really as good as it gets.

miller, the strap on those sitkas looks pretty cheesy...is it? Doesn't look like a good design at all - like the material would crack/break pretty easily with a few wet/snowy/dry weather changes.

My straps dont show any wear, the coating on there is bonded over what looks like some sort of nylon strap. I dont think theres really anything cheesy about them. There built really solid, that hypalon lower is incredibly tough. I did read DuPont stopped producing Hypalon, so I dont know what that means for these gaiters in the future. Hopefully there's an alternative, sinces thats what they make alot of inflatable rafts and other stuff with.

In hand the straps look good to me. I have only had these since Christmas, so get back to me in a year or two about the material. I don't think it will be a problem.
