I was resistant to the idea of gaiters because of concerns about noise and limiting mobility. I finally got sick of wet boots and pant legs. My first and only pair has been the OR Crocs, and I wear them any time there is grass/plant dew or in snow. If not, they stay at the tent. After getting used to wearing them I cannot imagine going back to hunting without them (in the appropriate context). There are a lot of good brands I considered, but ended up on OR and don’t regret it. Good luck!
