Altra Trail Gaiters

Altra Trail Gaiters – Lightweight Protection for Every Trail

Keep the trail under your feet, not inside your shoes.

Take on dusty trails, sandy tracks and rugged terrain with the Altra Trail Gaiters, designed to help keep dirt, rocks, sand and unwanted debris out of your running shoes.

Whether you're tackling technical singletrack, exploring the Perth Hills or preparing for your next ultra-marathon, these lightweight trail running gaiters provide practical protection without restricting your natural movement.

Designed with Altra's signature focus on comfort and performance, the Trail Gaiters fit securely around your ankle and over the top of your shoe, creating a protective barrier against loose trail debris.

Their lightweight, breathable construction makes them ideal for long-distance trail running, hiking and fastpacking, helping reduce interruptions caused by stones and grit finding their way into your footwear.

Compatible with Altra's GaiterTrap™ attachment system, these gaiters offer convenient attachment without the need for traditional underfoot straps when used with compatible Altra trail running shoes.

From dusty summer trails to demanding ultra-distance adventures, the Altra Trail Gaiters help you stay focused on the kilometres ahead.

They're particularly useful for runners tackling dry, dusty trails, sandy coastal tracks and long-distance events where stopping repeatedly to empty your shoes can interrupt your rhythm.
