You will typically see the PHs wearing shorts, low-top footwear and short gaiters to protect the ankles and lower legs from vines, thorns etc. I always wear boots that cover those areas so I don't bother with gaiters. The only gaiters I wear on occasion are snake gaitors when I'm hunting in Texas' rattlesnake country.
