Outdoor Research Rocky Mountain High Gaiters II Women – Water-Resistant Hiking Gaiters | Black | Medium

Overview

The Rocky Mountain High Gaiters II from Outdoor Research blend weather resistance with a refreshed fit designed to work with a variety of boots. These gaiters slip over the lower leg to shield your boots from mud, water, and trail debris while maintaining breathability for longer day trips on damp or rocky trails.

What makes them work

• Durable Hypalon instep straps resist wear and stay secure under rugged footwork.
• Reinforced boot lace hooks keep the gaiters anchored through uneven terrain and muddy sections.
• A self-fastening front closure reduces fiddling so you can stay focused on the trail.

Performance you can rely on

• Breathable, abrasion-resistant fabric stands up to scree, brush, and damp weather.
• Water resistance helps quell splashes and light rain without excessive bulk or heat buildup.
• A practical, low-profile design protects against debris while remaining comfortable inside your hiking boots.

Fit, sizes, and versatility

Available in sizes S–L for women, the gaiters are built to fit a range of boot profiles. The updated pattern maintains a secure sleeve over the leg, making them suitable for day hikes, backpacking, and variable trail conditions.
