ASI Lightweight Snake Gaiters proudly made in South Africa, are flexible snake gaiters that weigh 220 grams each. The outer shell is made of Authentic 500D Cordura® with double Acrylic coating, water resistant and calendered for softer handling while the inner shell is made of two layers of DuPont Kevlar® micro filament yarn. It is very finely woven material that renders exceptional protection against fragmentation, with an anti-stab capability. These two layers are stitched into an inner casing of high tenacity nylon (parachute material). The gaiters are one size fits all with a YKK® zip at the back. Each gaiter is adjustable at the back and has a loop for a shoelace to fit through on the underside. The Lightweight Snake Gaiters have been tested against bites from the Puff Adder, Cape Cobra, Snouted Cobra and Black Mamba with no penetration during testing. Ideal for hikers, birders, fly-fishermen, geologists, bush-clearing teams, hunters and mountain biking.
Wider or shorter gaiters can be ordered upon request.
