Snake gaiters/hunting gaiters

[RBH]

Back in the fall, while clearing a John Deere XUV trail, I was bitten by a copperhead snake.... that said I am in the market for some gaiters.
Would anyone have a suggestion as to a pair.
I like the looks of these.

Thanks for any recommendations !

You might try these. I have 2 pair for riding. Heavy leather and large zippers. Mine are 15 years old, have a warm patina, and are just as good as new.

Wow, first I’ve heard of this Rusty. Hand or leg? Hope all is well by now. Even the anti venom can be nasty stuff. A friend ended up having to have lots of dead tissue trimmed away on his hand.

Jack... he got me on my left leg just under the back bend of the knee. On that leg I have pinched nerves in my back and on the entire back of my leg I have no feeling.
So for wo days I did not realize I was bit.
I went to the Dr and he gave me a couple shots and said I was fortunate.
I had a lot of swelling and bruising and still have muscle soreness but so far so good!!!
As a side note after I knew I had been bitten I knew when it happened. I thought i stepped on a limb and it popped up and hit my leg. at the time never gave it a second thought.....

You were indeed lucky for those two days. I’m glad for it, could have gone much worse.
