Durable, fast-and-light pair of gaiters that protects against mosquitoes, ticks, and other biting insects, while keeping pesky rocks and debris from getting in your shoes.
With the lightest weight and most streamlined design, the Bugout Thru Gaiters are ideal for fast-and-light adventures through dirty, buggy environments. Proven to be effective at repelling a wide range of bugs like mosquitos, ticks, flies, chiggers, ants, and midges (no-see-ums), and safe for the entire family, Insect Shield® technology works just like sprays and lotions but stays on your gear - not on your skin. This fabric is just as stretchy as it is durable, with weather resistance that will let rain roll right off and quick-drying for use day after day. A shoelace hook and drawcord cinch at its top hem ensures a snug fit that keeps debris out of your trail runners and low-profile hiking boots, and a replaceable instep strap makes gear fixes on-the-go a breeze.
Insect Shield® is the long-lasting, durable bug-repellent technology that works just like sprays and lotions, but stays on your clothing and gear – not on your skin.

Proven to be effective and safe for the entire family, Insect Shield® products are put through a ringer of 3rd party testing like “KD” Knockdown, field testing, and more to ensure complete effectiveness. Plus, all Insect Shield® apparel is EPA-registered.
