FAQs

Are these straps suitable for all Trekmates gaiters?

No, these 10mm narrow straps are designed for specific Trekmates models including Karakorum, Expedition, post-2015 Cairngorm, Torridon, Jagare, Rannoch, and Grasmere. Please check your gaiter model for compatibility.

What is the width of these gaiter straps?

These are narrow straps with a width of 10mm.

How do I attach these straps to my gaiters?

The straps typically thread through loops on the gaiter and pass under the sole of your footwear, secured by the gaiter's adjustment system.

Can I use these straps with gaiters from other brands?

While they might fit some other brands with similar narrow strap requirements, they are optimized for the specified Trekmates models. Fit and performance with other brands are not guaranteed.

How often should I check my gaiter straps?

It is recommended to check your gaiter straps for wear and tear before each use, especially before undertaking long or demanding hikes.

What should I do if a strap breaks during a hike?

If a strap breaks, it significantly compromises the gaiter's function. Secure the gaiter as best as possible and consider turning back or proceeding with caution, being mindful of debris entering your boots.

Troubleshooting

Strap feels too loose or too tight.

Adjust the strap length using the integrated adjustment mechanism on your gaiter. Ensure the strap is correctly routed under your boot's sole.

Strap not staying in place under the boot.

Ensure the strap is seated firmly in the groove of your boot's sole. Check that the gaiter itself is properly fitted to your boot.

Strap shows signs of fraying or damage.

Discontinue use immediately and replace the strap to ensure gaiter integrity and safety. Inspect gaiter attachment points for damage as well.
