After walking in a recent heat wave in the rain while wearing rain pants aka glorified black trash bags/personal sauna. Wetter inside than outside the pants.
Can anyone please give their experience with gaiters that have straps while wearing trail runners (not boots or shoes with an indentation between heel and plantar surface)?
How is the risk of getting trapped and face planting, falling or twisting your ankle?
Does this strap post a risk of getting caught on rocks, tree branches, Roman roads etc…?
Has anyone cut off the straps and used Velcro to attach?
I don’t mind getting upper legs wet, I need to protect what potentially gets in my trail runners. I always get blisters when shoes and socks get drenched.
All experience and advice is welcome and appreciated!
Thanks, Aymarah
