Good quality, competitively-priced set of gaiters. As others have said, the zips do benefit from waxing/lubricating. The pair I received didn't match exactly colour-wise but, since they were bought for practicality and not a fashion show, it's not an issue. As FU-Kit's rubric makes clear, these are a slim-fit around the calves.

Product came as described. Shipping could be better, did not receive any notifications or email from destination country postal carrier (Fedex) regarding the item has arrived and ready to be picked up at the mail office.

Have not yet used, but the condition is good and they are surprisingly light compared to modern British army gaiters. Have just given them some Nikwax TX spray and look forward to using soon.

Not the easiest to put on and take off but they keep you clean and keep the water and mud off very impressively. Definite signs of use but the quality is superb. When you stretch them out you can see the incredible work that has gone into making these, and it makes you feel humble to have paid such a small amount for the obvious hard work put into them. I did make a couple of minor repairs/reinforcements to mine with a speedy stitcher and I'm pretty confident they'll now last me out. I also waxed the zips and that made a tremendous improvement to the operation of them. The buckle pins were bent (I can imagine somebody after a long, hard wet day just trying to rip them off as quickly as possible) but they were easily straightened. Overall, they are a top quality product with plenty of life left in them if given a bit of TLC

Had to do a little repair (sewing) because the elastic wasn't attached on some parts of the gaitors but it works perfectly well.

Very good condition for used kit. Note that they're a greenish grey - to my eyes anyway.
