Hoping for better
I like the idea of having an insect repellent gaiter. My biggest disappointment regarding this item is the position of the strap that goes under one's boot. It is positioned too far back making it hard to position the strap correctly in front of the heel. As a result, the strap slips backwards towards the heel making it more likely that one will be walking on it and wearing it out pretty fast.
I have to position the front lace hook very forward on the boot to keep try to keep the strap in place.
I wear a women's size 8 boot.

great for work or recreation in tick and chigger infested areas
I bought these gaiters for fieldwork in areas known for abundant ticks and chiggers, and they've made me happy. The gaiters are lightweight, appear to be constructed of durable materials, and fit well over 8" high workboots. After a couple trials, I'm convinced they reduce the amount of nasties getting through to ankles and other less pleasant body parts.

Not bad
Work well in dry cond. Bugoff did repell ticks. Bottom band held up over 90 miles of AT trekking

Good When Dry
Perform their job well when dry, seal up my low cut Montrails and keep the bugs and dirt out. My only complaint is when they are wet they collapse under their own weight, but do dry quickly.

Very Nice and super light weight!
Great fit, and I was amazed at how once they were on, so easy to get on and off after you had them adjusted. You never know you have them on they are so light weight. Can't wait for bug season to check them out, but I know they will work perfect for the scree and dust. Awesome lite weight gators. Even my girlfriend liked hers.

Nice light weight gaitors
They fit well, are easy to get on and off, and the strap that goes under the shoe is beefy. It isn't replace-able, as far as I can tell, but at this price I'll buy another pair when these wear out.
