Gearing up for my 2014 trip, and wanted some of you guys opinions on gaiters. (Or any other necessities).

Have tall and short.

I tend to wear long pants so the tall ones are my faves.

Not sure they are the best but they work for me at a decent price.

I have tried the canvas and leather gaiters.

Leather hands down are the best.

The canvas ones, you will have rubbish sticking to it.

i use the rowland ward ankle gaiters. brick prob needs the tall ones just to cover his ankles ... but being a short arse compared to him i have used the ankle ones for about 5 years and am about to buy some more.

Thanks wheels. I think I will order a pair from Rowland Ward. Now if only I could find a 470NE double at such a deal ...

No problem. Not sure what shipping will add to the cost.

Where and when are you hunting in 2014?

I will be in Zimbabwe late May til early June. Plains game only (unless a super opportunity for buff or leopard comes up). I hope to go back in two years for buff and maybe leopard.

Sounds like a blast. Will look forward to hearing about it and seeing pictures.
