Even cheap products deserve a review...

Pro's -
- Keep's your feet and legs dry
- Cheap
- Work great for keeping rocks or scree out

Con's-
- Don't breath very well (get too warm on warm days)
- Tie strings are a joke, especially the one under the boot, it ties like a shoelace (then comes untied)

A couple of toggles from an old jacket I retired aided in the use of this product and made them rather serviceable.

Update 2/27/05: After a few more snow trips I broke down and replaced the tie strings underneath with a couple short bungee's, I should have spent the $1.50 when I bought them. It's obvoius the gaiters will wear out in a couple years, but they always keep my legs dry.
