These gaiters prevent foreign objects from getting into your shoes. They make bushwhacking more comfortable for adventure races and orienteering.

A high-strength belt is used on the sole of the shoe and is firmly secured with a newly invented buckle, so the shoes won't slip up even when you're hacking your way through the bush, and you can hack your way through the bush with peace of mind without having to worry about the belt coming off.

We searched for various gaiters, but we could not find any that we could safely use when paddling through the bush. The rubber laces on the soles of our shoes quickly wore out, and the belt fastenings and Velcro got caught in the brush and came off, causing the gaiters to slide up. We focused on the belt and its fastening method, and after repeated prototyping and field testing, we have created a completely original lightweight gaiter for paddling through the bush.

The accumulation of small stresses can reduce your concentration and lead to navigation errors, or you can be concerned about a pebble under your foot and stab your ankle when you land. Take action before these small foreign objects cause big trouble!

merit

  • Prevents damage to your feet, loss of time, and loss of concentration caused by pebbles getting into your shoes.
  • I can't untie my shoelaces.
  • Your shoes and socks will last longer because they won't get dirty. Also, the hassle and stress of washing them is greatly reduced.
  • When combined with shin gaiters, this gear will protect your ankles from exposure and make you resistant to bushwhacking.

Important points to note

  • If the protrusions on the sole of your shoes are small or worn, the strap on the sole may wear out prematurely.
  • If the belt is placed on top of a protrusion on the sole of the shoe, it will wear out more quickly, so try to wear it off-center as much as possible.
  • The belt and buckle can be easily replaced, so we recommend that you have a spare one for long races. (The buckle is the same for both left and right.)
  • Depending on your shoes and running style, the inner buckle may rub against the inner calf of the opposite leg, so we recommend not exposing any skin.
