[Sold Melbourne] Sea to Summit Quagmire gaiters

Tue 09 Feb, 2021 10:17 pm

Sea to Summit Quagmire Gaiters

Purchased for the Overland Track and lightly worn but clean and appear "as new". I then switched to a lighter Zpacks UL type and haven't had need for them on my hikes on established tracks but they'd be great for Tasmania and bush-bashing.

Note: This is the type of gaiters recommended to potentially offer some protection / best protection against snake bites, of all the options on the market. (This isn't to say they'd succeed against a snake - just the best of the options.) They're made of canvas and heavy duty.

MANUFACTURER INFO
Made tough with 8oz Corespun Canvas, the Sea to Summit Quagmire Canvas Gaiter is well suited to tough terrain in the warm Australian climate, and while there's never any guarantees, these offer the best reassurance against snake bites.

Able to withstand the spiky forces of Australia’s native Spinifex bush, the Quagmire Canvas gaiter not only provides you with reliable leg armour but has the benefit of being extremely breathable. The canvas material is also stiff enough to stand up with the top open for extra ventilation.

1000 denier Cordura fabric provides a durable and snug fit around your boots, while an alloy hook buckle on the front provides superior fit adjustment and shin protection. Finished off with alloy and stainless steel hardware, inner ankle scuff pads, and a replaceable foot strap, the Quagmire gaiters will keep your legs protected on any on, or off-trail hike.

I can post photo of these in my lounge tomorrow.

PICK UP: Pick up is from my present apartment at St Kilda Road, Melbourne 3004.
or
MAIL OUT: I can send by Australia post, and you can let me know if you want to pay for additional insurance and signature on delivery which I'm happy to do at the normal price for Australia post.

Background to selling: I have just bought an apartment facing onto a park, settling in 60 days. So I have to liquidate everything valuable I'm not using, get minimalist, and consider that my new apartment doesn't have storage. Presently I have multiples of a number of things for different conditions or length of hike, and I need to pare down drastically. I will be listing over forthcoming days gear that is new and unused, and some lightly used. This will include UL dyneema tent, hiking poles, UL 32 L hiking pack, extra mats, extra hiking poles, Schrade survival knife, Garmin Inreach Explorer Plus, Overland Track books, extra hiking stove and pot, extra survival items, and a bunch of little things. In some cases I'm posting the generic product photos but I will get items out and photograph and add the photos of items in my lounge.


Any queries feel free to message me.
