When the trail starts to look more like a scramble and less like a well-worn path, the Rab Women's Trek Gaiters are a valuable asset to have packed away in your gear. These burly gaiters are built to keep snow, rocks, and rain out of your boots, so you can focus on forging ahead. Designed to fit over a hiking boot without being restrictive, they're built to go the distance, thanks to the 70D nylon ripstop fabric, which is reinforced by 200D nylon ripstop that withstands sharp rocks and crampon scrapes without skipping a beat. When you need them, the no-zip hook-and-loop closure makes it easy to put these on, and they come off just as easily once they're no longer needed.
