From Backcountry.com:
"Winner of Backpacker Magazine's 1999 Editor's Choice Gold Award, Outdoor Research Crocodiles Gaiters the original do-it-all gaiter of mountaineers, backcountry skiers, and off-trail adventurers are designed to handle anything. The durable Taslan Gore-Tex leg section, much like the Crocodile Gaiter's namesake, creates an impenetrable hide-like shield against snow, rocks, and every hiker's bane, the thorny Devil's Club. The 1000d Cordura boot section, lined with burly, coated 8 oz. packcloth, resists the abuses dealt from ski edges, crampons and general wear. The water-resistant coating on the packcloth faces the Cordura layer, thereby protecting the coating from boot abrasion and insuring a much longer life for these gaiters. A 2in-wide hook-and-loop front closure offers enough range to accommodate leather and plastic boots as well as light or heavy insulating layers."
From CampSaver.com:
"20% off Coupon Available! Like their namesakes, Crocs have been around forever.The instep strap is now replaceable, and an additional tab holds the front opening down, but otherwise they remain unchanged.The fitted design and durable, waterproof fabrics are as effective now as ever."
From RockCreek:
"On television, in magazines, and in the mountains all over the world, OR, Crocodiles have become the most visible of all gaiters. Is it their bombproof construction? Their trim fit? Their easy adjustability? Well, it's probably all of the above. In any case we're glad that this ground-breaking design has been so successful. Crocodiles were the first fitted gaiters whose size could be adjusted to fit tightly on boots of different sizes. Changing the amount of overlap of the wide VELCRO brand front strips changes the Croc's circumference, allowing a single pair to fit several different boot styles. The foot section is armored with denier Cordura and lined with the. The waterproof coatings on the two layers face one another so they'll never be worn away. Taslan fabric covers the leg section and combined with a 3/4 in. wide webbing and cam buckle top closure, keeps out the elements."
