Outdoor Research Crocodile Gaiters | Rugged Protection for the Harshest Terrain

Bluesign® Approved GORE-TEX Gaiters Built for Alpine, Snow, and Mountain Use

When conditions go sideways, the Crocodile® Gaiters keep your lower half squared away. Built with abrasion-resistant Cordura®, GORE-TEX 3L waterproof protection, and a secure, adjustable fit, these gaiters are designed for the worst terrain, whether you're busting through snowdrifts, scrambling up scree, or deep in backcountry mud.

The newly updated 2025 design improves the fit and durability without compromising the no-nonsense reliability these gaiters are known for. With an adjustable camlock closure, TPU instep straps, offset hook-and-loop closure, and boot lace hooks, they stay locked on your boots and locked out from the elements.

Why We Love It

These gaiters are bombproof. They’ve seen more alpine punishment than most gear in your loadout, and they just keep going. From snowy ridge lines to muddy trails- if it’s nasty, this is what you want wrapped around your boots.
