It's A Trap!
Senior Member
I bought these 1980s Italian military gaiters off some military surplus site 5 pairs for 10 dollars. Made from waxed canvas they repel water pretty well but the rivets and hooks are pretty weak and bend or pop off easy. I was thinking about sowing some Velcro to where the rivets are but im not sure if that would be the best option. I was also going to put some Velcro on the little strap that goes under your shoe so it stays on the canvas better. They stop water from splashing into my socks pretty well and so im worried about compromising the water resistance of the gaiters if I do modify them.
