ALTRA Unisex Trail Gaiter

Work great on my Olympus 6 shoes. The aggressive tread of the shoes throw up a lot of rocks and sand when running or hiking fast so these gaiters are a must!! I’ve got a dozen wears with them so far. They are lightweight and I don’t even notice them at all. The attachment is very secure, cool engineering. Only concern is the part that goes around the ankle doesn’t seem very stretchy and fitting my size 12 foot through them makes me nervous with how light the material is. Wish they had a more robust ankle attachment/compression sleeve.

Fits perfectly with my Altras. I used the other reviews to determine size. It was more based on my ankle/calf size than my shoe size. I wear size 11 women's shoes but have small legs. I got the smalls, and they fit fine. Ran a trail half marathon on sandy/rocky trails in Colorado, and nothing ended up in my shoes. Perfect! They go on quickly, connect with the shoelaces and the built-in velcro on the back of my shoes. Great buy!

I've used these for my Altra Lone Peaks and Topo Mountain Racer 4s. They fit perfect for these two shoe systems. I didn't give it a 5 star rating since the price is too high for trail running gaiters. I've used it both for trail running on my Altra Lone Peaks and for backpacking on my Topos. No bugs on my feet.

Very light in weight. Great heel Velcro anchor Also front is held firmly by a metal hook and Velcro closure NOTE: the hook faces up not down as it secures to the shoe lace at front of shoe. And remember to slip the gaiter on before you put the shoes on. There is no zipper Velcro closure

I purchased the trail gaiters to use on my trail race to keep small pebbles out of my shoes. For the race I used Brooks Cascadia running shoes which do have the velcro on the back to hold them in place. Overall I was very pleased, nothing in my shoes and I didn't even notice them while running. I will be keeping them around for hiking in the spring and will report back if I experience any issues.

I now have 7-8 of these. The most recent are three that, in my opinion, are improved, because they are slimmer at the ankle. My previous ones, I had to re-seam because of the gaping at the ankle, which allowed sand and small pebbles into the insides. Now, I wish Altra would revisit the decision to discontinue the gaiter attachments on the All-Weather Lone Peaks. Gaiters are needed on all low ankle trail shoes.

Works good, but back side connections needs improves . Sticky strap doesn’t work second day of hiking because collect dust.I had to find another solution like safety pin .

Used in a through hike recently. Worked great. The top hole you have to put your foot through could be a little stretchier. I felt like I was going to tear it a few times.
