why your child might need some gaiters? You might not need to get gaiters. We did without them for years. However, there were times when we ended up with wet feet despite some good gear. Since getting gaiters they've proved themselves extremely useful. Gaiters wrap around their calf and protect the lower leg and the top of their walking boot. As rain pours down their coat it drips onto their trousers. Since you got them waterproof trousers, that's no big deal, but the rain then runs down their trousers and into the top part of their walking boots - which is always less waterproof than the bottom. Gaiters help the water flow away from the top of the boot and where the laces are, keeping your kid's feet dry.
