    Loops are needed when there is snow involved, otherwise your probably right.

    I usually use neoprene putties which are ok. Have some army goretex gaiters I've never worn but might try them up high this year to help combat that shitty speargrass

    I used to make my own with old jeans and shoelaces. Doesnt keep you dry but keeps the crap out and protects the lower legs. I have seen guys use horse bandages.
