Dive Rite Drysuit Gaiters help limit airflow to the feet when drysuit diving. They reduce drag, can help improve trim and provide drysuit divers extra comfort. Constructed of rugged ballistic nylon with three { 1 in | 2.5 cm } elastic straps. Low profile quick release buckles provide easy donning and doffing, even with cold fingers. Buckles are enclosed within a pocket to prevent abrasion or entanglement. Gaiters are the preferred alternative to cumbersome ankle weights. Designed as one size fits all, the adjustable elastic straps can be trimmed for smaller-size calves.

Which way do the buckles face?- Some divers prefer to position the elastic straps on the front of the shin to hold the gaiter firmly in place. By wearing the straps across the shin, the gaiter stays put and does not constrict calf muscles. The top strap should be worn above the top of the calf, not across the calf muscle. The second strap will reside mid-calf and the lower strap just below the calf muscle.

Some divers prefer to wear them with the Logo in front for a clean look and configuration on the front of the leg. In our opinion, they may be worn as the individual divers prefer. In both positions, they will perform the required function to keep air from the boots.
