- I am looking at insulated supergaitors, and I have been able to
- find only two, both with Thinsulate on the bottom half of the gaitor.
-
- 1. Wild Country Extremities Supergaitors ($95), with Goretex.
-
- 2. Black Diamond Expedition Supergaitors ($90), with Ultrex.
-
- Does anyone have any experience with these? How do they stand up
- to crampon points? How durable is the rubber rand? How helpful is
- the insulation? Any other models that I should consider?
-
- Thanks for the help,
-
