Black Diamond Cirque Gaiters - Black, Size L

When alpine approaches turn slushy and scree finds every gap in your boots, the Black Diamond Cirque Gaiters keep debris and moisture out without adding bulk. Unlike traditional mountaineering gaiters that feel stiff and heavy, these use a 2-layer GORE-TEX upper for waterproof breathability and a 70D nylon lower for abrasion resistance, all in a slim, low-profile design that moves with you.

Highlights

• 2-layer GORE-TEX fabric delivers waterproof, breathable protection
• 70D nylon lower section resists abrasion from rocks and crampons
• Hook-and-loop front closure for quick on/off even with gloves
• Adjustable Hypalon instep strap with stainless steel lace hook
• Drawcord top closure with cord lock seals out snow and debris
• Ultra-light pair weight: 150 g (5.3 oz) – highly packable

In daily use

Slip them on over your boots, secure the front hook-and-loop, and cinch the top drawcord – you're ready for anything from spring trail running to winter snowshoeing. The slim fit eliminates flapping fabric, while the reinforced lower shrugs off sharp rocks and ice. When the weather clears, they stuff into a pocket without a second thought.
