    Like you I have long calf’s. honestly I still have to have the boot strap a little on the long side to get the gaiter top over my calf.
    With the strap on the long side my boot is a little more exposed than I’d like. But still works.
    in a perfect world i like to have them 1-2” longer.
    Yes. Same!!

    I was really hoping when stone glacier came out with theirs that they would make a "tall" model. It's hard to believe no one offers this yet in a world of tall model clothes, left handed rifles and bows etc.... there ought to me a market for taller gaiters damn it

    I had the same thing happen to mine OR gaiters as well. Contacted their warranty department and they told me that the clip has been a common issue. They are looking at replacing it in their design. Gave me a new pair.

    If you still have them, I'd try and get your money back or get a new pair sent to you.

    I grabbed a pair of the firstlite bramblers last year. Put ‘em through a pretty gnarly Rosie hunt this year and they held up well. I’d buy again fwiw

    7 years with kenetreck, over a thousand k.

    Super quiet, probably get another grand out of them…
    He's anything but a hunter.
    More like another, Rain Coast Sociopath Fraud. Living off the prevails of his chronic lies, like the rest of them...

    It's an issue, because these sociopath environmentalist's, will dilute the facts.
    To the point you or Joe public, won't know them any more..
    They count on that big time..

    You cheated yourself out of a free pair my friend. Those are lifetime warranty gaiters. I just had mine replaced after 11 years of abuse. No questions asked. Call OR they will give you a store credit at least for them.
