Gaiters

In recent times, the gaiters have become an almost essential accessory to ensure a good outing in the mountains or in the forest. They will not only protect your footwear, but will also prevent rubbing against branches or different elements that you may encounter.

Despite being made of resistant materials , they are also lightweight, which will allow you to stride nimbly and walk comfortably throughout the route you have planned.

It is true that there are different types of gaiters, whether low or high leg, traditional or ankle.

The fantastic history of gaiters

Gaiter comes from the French "poulaine" , which means "Polish leather", since it was from Poland that the leather was imported to make gaiters, at the beginning of the 15th century. This invention was first used by shepherds and farmers, and was fastened to the leg with metal buckles.

In different parts of the world, gaiters are also known as gaiters, leggins, spats or puttees , especially in English-speaking countries.

Their evolution has been fascinating, as from the cowboys or hippies of the 60s to the most modern times, both men and women have worn gaiters.
