Why We Like The Helium Gaiters

The Halium Gaiters are one of our gear-closet stapes because the lightweight fabric is perfect for a fast-paced through hike or the ultralight-backpacker. On the performance side, the 2.5L Pertex waterproof membrane prevents rain, mud, or even slush from entering your boots, all while maintaining airy breathability for varied conditions.

Lightweight but awkward fit

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

Used these for dozens of miles in Iceland. The lace hook kept coming off even with the strap at the tightest setting. A little more tension is needed here. The strap placement is awkward, almost under the heel as opposed to under the ball of the foot. Strains very long and still comes loose.

OR Women's Helium Gaiters

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

My sister and I went backpacking and I couldn't be more pleased with how my new OR Helium Gaiters worked. No rocks in my shoes, no dust, and we climbed up a glacier and they kept me dry. I wanted something lightweight and protected my shoes and lower legs and these definitely fit the bill - wore them 4 days in a row. Easy on and off and fit me well. Also I wanted the red upper part because so many of my things are black and get lost in the bottom of my pack. These are easy to find.

Fantastic gaiters

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

I’m using these for all of my hikes and snowshoeing. My calves are nice and warm, and my feet are dry! I always thought my calves were big, but they still fit really well. My calves are 14 inches at the west part. These are easy on and off and super light if you are carrying them in your pack.

Too small

Familiarity:
I returned this product before using it

These gaiters seem nice, but the calves are just slightly too small. I can almost get them velcroed at the widest point, but not quite. For reference my calves are 16" around; I'm 5'6" and usually wear a women's size 8 or medium. I thought these would fit me because I previously tried their wide calf gaiters (the Outdoor Research Crocodile Gaiters - women's L Wide) and they were way too big, as in falling off my legs. Nothing here for mid-sized women I guess.
