TRAIL GUARD WATERPROOF GAITERS

When out bushwalking in Australia never assume you are completely alone because there could be something lurking in the rock crevices and grassland!

Australia has about 170 species of land snakes, with some of these being more toxic than any other snakes in the world.

Although snake bites are not overly common in Australia it is really important, particularly in the more remote areas of the Australian outback to take care when out camping and bushwalking.

Whilst most snakes would rather slither away from humans than fight them, it is possible to accidentally step on or come in close contact with one in long grass, rock crevices, paddocks, bushland and hiking trails.

This is where our snake gaiters are reassuring, providing peace of mind, especially as mentioned in isolated and remote parts of our country.

Of course, they can also be worn just to keep dry and warm in wet grass!

MATERIAL: 

D600 nylon waterproof exterior, breathable mesh interior

EASY TO WEAR: Simply slide-in, zip-up, and you're protected from the elements.
BREATHABLE: Dual-layer design with mesh interior for ultimate breathability.
TEAR RESISTANT & WATERPROOF: 600D Oxford nylon offers superior protection against terrain cuts and the elements, passing the IPX4 waterproofing test. 

Available in three sizes for a perfect fit.

Whatever adventures you enjoy in the great outdoors, Northbound Gear will keep you warm, dry and comfortable.

WE HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR OUTDOOR ADVENTURES AS MUCH AS WE DO!
