Kuiu Yukon gaiters are excellent. I've had mine for a couple of years they have done a great job in wet grass and snow.

Kennetrek work great but the buckles break easily.

I have Kenetrek’s, but when it’s time, I’ll be replacing them with KUIU’s.

What’s the purpose? Wet grass, snow, crossing small creeks, etc. Keeps the bottoms of your pants and the tops of your socks dry. Even with the best waterproof boots, if the tops of your socks get wet, they’ll wick moisture down into your boot.

I like the KUIU Yukon's for wet, but use some King's Camo ones for hunting the desert-

OR (Outdoor Research). They have a nice warranty. The straps that go under your boot are non stick and replaceable. Very durable which is a good thing with gaiters.

Kuiu are the best IMO. Had Kenetrek and OR in past. OR was okay but kenetrek buckles/straps didn’t last very long for me.
