I am admittedly a large legged fellow (maybe a little fat), but I need your recommendations for gaiters. I purchased the PEAX xl and they do not fit. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Check out the kuiu gaiters, they work for me. If I remember right they had pretty good dimensions and measurements so you can make sure they fit before you order

Kenetrek XL fit my big calves with room to spare the t&k are big too from everything I've seen but I haven't personally tried them l. I recently heard of katmai gear grizzly gaiters which I was planning on checking out since they're local to me and supposed to be big as well.

KUIU Yukon XL fit my calves and I haven’t met or seen many people with a larger calf/foot combo.

Size 15 and calves are 18” circumference.

Kenetrek XL are larger than the Yukons but are nowhere close on performance if truly staying dry matters. I use my Kenetrek XL with Hoffman double insulated pacs.

OR are noisy if that matters.
