“These gaiters look smart and like long boots. I have found them to be a little slippery/not grippy thus far but my horse is exceptionally sharp and they're likely fine on more sensible mounts. They do have a contoured calf which doesn't match mine (odd because the bottom is very tight and the zio wouldn't go to the bottom the first couple of times I rode in them. until the elastic stretched. They do go the full way down now. I'd been searching for gaiters which didn't flip over the back of my boots and these don't do that due to the low profile - they're almost like spats. I think they're more suited to thin legs - which was my main reason for trying them (gaiters are often too long or too wide for me).”
