ViperShield™ snake gaiters
ViperShield Gaiter Construction
Polypropylene Guard Lining
The gaiters are lined with a rigid polypropylene panel. It adds a stiff layer over the calf area, which is where the gaiters sit when worn over boots on brushy trails.
Oxford Fabric Shell
The outer shell is heavy-duty Oxford fabric. It covers the lower leg while you walk through mud, wet brush and rough ground, and you can wipe it clean after a trip.

Buckles and Straps
Multiple adjustable buckles and straps wrap around the calf and ankle. You tighten each one by hand to set the fit, which lets you adjust to your boots and trousers.
Weight
The pair weighs 850 grams. Plan for that in your pack weight if you carry the gaiters to the trailhead, or wear them from the car on field days.

Snake gaiters are leg coverings worn over boots and up the calves in terrain where snakes live. ViperShield is a pair with a rigid polypropylene bite guard lining and a heavy Oxford fabric shell.
Used as snake gaiters for hiking, the pair weighs 850 grams and fastens with adjustable buckles and straps at the calf and ankle. Hunters wear snake gaiters for hunting in swampy blinds and muddy trailheads, where the Oxford fabric covers the lower leg.
Each leg gaiter also uses reinforced buckles and stitched straps for repeated use on rough ground. The adjustable system is made to fit most calf and ankle sizes, and a quick-start fitting guide is included.
