Too small for bulky boots/clothing
These (size L/XL) would be fine for x-c skiing but they are cut too skimpy for use with larger boots/bulky clothing often used when snowshoeing. This is my 2nd pair of OR short gaiters. The previous (non-stretch) nylon type worked well for both applications. Note: I am a 5'10', medium wt. male so these may work o.k. for someone smaller. overall quality is good.

good for winter conditions
These are great for a day out ice climbing or a winter hike. The softshell fabric is not good in the rain. If you're doing some serious all day snow slogging and post holing, you might want something a little more heavy duty but for an average person on an average day out, these should fit the bill just fine. The new bottom strap is a nice upgrade and is plenty burly.
