Altra Trail Gaiter

The Altra Trail Gaiter is a strapless, breathable trail running gaiter that keeps rocks, mud and debris out of your shoes. It hooks onto Altra's GaiterTrap and all but disappears, so you can stop emptying pebbles at every trailhead.

It suits trail runners and hikers in Altra trail shoes who want simple debris protection without a strap running under the shoe. The abrasion-resistant, highly breathable fabric keeps grit out on loose, dusty trails. The strapless design performs best paired with a GaiterTrap-equipped Altra shoe, and Altra makes it unisex in Small and Large. Clip it on at the trailhead and forget about it until the post-run stretch.

Running in a shoe without a GaiterTrap? The Kahtoola INSTAgaiter Low uses an instep strap to hug almost any shoe or boot.
