Clogger SnakeSafe - Australia's Classic Snake Gaiters for Peace of Mind Size Large

SKU = SSG31L

Size Large

Fit & Sizing:

SnakeSafe gaiters are designed to fit loosely over top of boots and pants. A rigid strip keeps the gaiters upright while allowing air flow for a cooler experience. Medium is the most popular size.

All SnakeSafe gaiter sizes have the same knee-to-ankle coverage of approximately 40cm, so the protection length remains the same across all sizes.

The only variation between sizes is in the calf circumference (measured around the fullest part of your calf) and the girth (the overall width of the gaiter when fastened).

I’ve included the size chart below for reference so you can find the best fit based on your calf measurement:

Developed in Australia, SnakeSafe Snake Gaiters give you the protection that you need when you are spending time in the outdoors, bush, long grass or anywhere where snakes are lurking.

Rigorously tested by Living with Wildlife, a leading Australia herpetologist, SnakeSafe Snake Gaiters have proven their performance. All varieties of Australian venomous snakes tried to bite through this protection. We've even tested the SnakeSafe gaiters with the Eastern Diamondback - the largest rattlesnake in the US. All our tests were successful. No snakes were able to puncture the gaiters.

Up to 4,000 Australians every year are bitten by snakes with some bites being fatal. This product gives farmers, outdoor workers, and nature enthusiasts true piece of mind where there is a risk of snake bite. 

Choose SnakeSafe, Australia’s Classic Snake Gaiter for proven protection. Trusted across all of Australia.

What People Are Saying  

"I was using a brush cutter in a drainage gully at work today while wearing a pair of Clogger SnakeSafe gaiters and, all of a sudden, I feel this pressure on my right leg. I turn around and see a 2m (over 6 foot) Taipan hanging on, so I flick my foot backwards to remove the snake. I inspected my chaps and the punctures didn't go through the gaiters, saving me from being bitten."

Safety Warning

SnakeSafe Snake Gaiters by Clogger were designed and tested by Clogger and have been proven effective in the field. In testing, SnakeSafe Gaiters had zero penetration by the full range of venomous Australian snakes. However, no snake gaiters should be considered “snake proof” and there is no guarantee that penetration could not occur in any circumstance.

Recommendations

• Avoid snakes.

  -SnakeSafe Gaiters are your last line of defence for snake protection. People should avoid any contact with snakes, keep away from areas with known snake populations and keep away from snakes once sighted.

• Wear a full range of snake protective gear.

 -Tough boots and pants should be worn with the gaiters for additional protection.

• Get medical attention after contact with a snake.

 -Carefully remove the gaiters. Avoid any contact with skin and the venom. Then immediately contact medical professionals.

Treatment of SnakeSafe Gaiters if bitten
