It depends. I wear gaiters with long pants and low top boots to keep grass and seeds out but also so my pants don’t ride up on the boot top. If I wear boots that come up a little higher so pants always easily fall over top them and cover up the laces I see no need. Depends on the boots you wear on your hunt.Here is something I thought of related to gear. I intend on wearing long pants for the hunt. Do you suggest I wear gaiters? Not that I would mind buying a pair and having them on hand but part of me wonders are they necessary and also I don't want to be "that guy" looking like "Mr. Safari" with all the garb even though it is not necessary. Not that I care what I look like, especially in the bush but I have been in camp with "Mr. Safari" guy who seemed to be more worried about looking and acting the part than being a genuine fun person in camp.
Don’t ask me why I take these photos on safari. I’m wondering why now myself lol. But example of gaiters needed vs not needed to keep pant leg riding up and grass getting in.
