<p>Hey Richard,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have yet to wear gaiters, but my plan is to start snow shoeing this winter as a means of crosstraining, since the trails will be mostly hard to navigate. I may give the gaiters a go. I am currently wearing the <a href="http://www.inov-8.com/Products-Detail.asp?PG=PG1&L=27&P=5050973005" target="_blank">INOV-8 Roclite 312 GTX</a> and find them to be a great introduction into the gore-tex world. Like Joe, screwing shoes is the norm for me, because even in the winter I can get aggressive at times.</p>
