SUMMIT COMBAT SNOW GAITER

The Devcore Combat Snow Gaiter was developed to perform in the harshest snow and ice conditions around the world. It utilizes the best in American materials to meet the rugged demand required by our Military to carry out its combat and training missions. This snow gaiter has all the features to make it user friendly while giving the soldier the best protection possible in harsh snowy and mountainous terrain.

This snow gaiter is built with a lightweight breathable waterproof lamented Nylon that wraps the entire upper leg. It is then overlaid with a 1000D DWR Cordura™ upper inner panel for abrasion resistance. The bottom exterior of the gaiter is constructed of 1000D DWR Cordura™ with a PU finish and the lower interior is constructed with a 420 Nylon pack cloth with PU finish for high abrasion resistance inside the gaiter that comes within contact with combat boots. The lower inside exterior has High Abrasion  patches to give it even more cut and tear resistance where crampons, snowshoes and ski boots might bang against one another compromising the snow gaiter around the inner ankle area.

The Devcore Combat Snow Gaiter was made to be easily donned and doffed by soldiers even under extreme conditions. Its full-length Hook and Loop closure was designed as a double closure to make sure the front never opens allowing snow and debris to enter the gaiter. We have added a cam buckle that allows for quick and easy cinch of boot strap so the gaiter can be adjusted to the right length whether being worn with crampons, ski boots, snowshoes or standard issued combat boots. The cam buckle has a High Abrasion Neoprene Kevlar Velcro™ cover to keep the buckle closed and protected.  The High Abrasion Neoprene Kevlar boot strap tucks into High Abrasion Neoprene Kevlar side sleeve on outside cuff to keep straps out of the way. A lace hook is attached to the front center of snow gaiter to keep it from riding up under use. Half inch webbing is used around the top of the gaiters with shock cord attached for easy push and cinch leg adjustments. Unlike other gaiters on the market that only use shock cord for top leg cinch, we constructed ours with the half inch webbing to keep the gaiter from not digging into leg over prolonged use.  This becomes very uncomfortable to our troops.
