Full details

The Trekmates Ordie Dry Gaiter is designed for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize breathability and freedom of movement during active use. Utilizing a 2.5-layer stretch fabric, these gaiters provide essential waterproof and windproof protection while maintaining a lightweight profile; however, users should note that the lightweight design may not offer the same puncture resistance as heavy-duty expedition gaiters.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gaiters waterproof?

Yes, they feature a 2.5-layer fabric with a 10,000mm hydrostatic head rating, making them highly waterproof.

Can I use these on trail running shoes?

While designed for walking boots, they can be used with trail shoes provided the under-boot strap tension is adjusted correctly to prevent fraying.

How do I know if Size 1 is right for me?

Size 1 is optimized for individuals standing 5'3" to 5'7" tall with an EU shoe size between 35 and 40.

Are they breathable enough for summer use?

Yes, the 10,000g/m2 breathability rating is specifically intended to prevent overheating during active use in milder or damp conditions.

How do I clean the gaiters?

Hand wash with a gentle, tech-friendly soap and air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the waterproof membrane.

Troubleshooting

Gaiter keeps slipping down

Ensure the silicone grip at the top is against your skin or smooth trouser fabric and pull the top strap to a tighter, yet comfortable, setting.

Under-boot strap is wearing out

The straps are designed to be replaceable; check the attachment point and source a matching replacement strap from Trekmates.

Water leaking through the zip

Verify that the internal storm guard is aligned correctly behind the zip and that the zip is fully closed at the top.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly breathable for active, high-exertion use
  • Lightweight construction at just 180g
  • Ergonomic stretch fabric ensures great freedom of movement
  • Secure fit provided by silicone grip cuffs
  • Fully compatible with standard hiking boots

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty bushwhacking or rock scrambling
  • Requires specific sizing for the most effective fit
  • Lighter material may show wear faster than thick canvas gaiters

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum performance, pull the side zip fully open before putting the gaiter on. Align the closure on the outside of your leg and secure the zip, ensuring the internal storm guard is lying flat. Place the under-boot strap securely across the arch of your boot and adjust for tension so it sits snugly. The Size 1 model is specifically designed for users between 5'3" and 5'7" with an EU shoe size of 35-40. For care, wash by hand using a technical gear cleaner to maintain the waterproof finish, and always ensure the gaiters are completely dry before storing them in a pack to prevent mildew.
