These Gaiters fit the bill.
These Gaiters fit right out of the packaging. They hold well on the leg and are great from keeping snow and water out of the top of your boot. These are the one item people forget to buy or bring on hiking trips. The people that do bring them, never forget them.

Gets the job done
There's not much too gaiters; you wear them to protect your shins and keep junk from falling into your boots. After hiking in Glacier National Park with only ankle-high gaiters and getting my shins cut up by brush, I made the switch to the shin-high gaiters and my shins have been grateful. My only complaint about these gaiters is the string used to keep the gaiters down on your boots can easily come untied (which has happened to me) and be lost on a hike.

These are handy
I found myself off trail on a nasty briar-deadfall mountain, although trail map said continue. What do you do? you pull out the gaiters and press on! It was hot and this gaiter felt fine on my bare legs. It breathed and protected my leg up to the knee. After crossing this segment, I rolled them off and folded them back into bag very easily.

Good Gator
Good all round gator, but did not fit as well as others I have used (Mtn Hrdwr). It serves the purpose of a gator for general field use to keep ticks off.

Good solid all-around gators
I have used these gators for the last few years. They have held up very well, I have only had to replace the lace that holds them down. I like how easy they are to ventilate at the top and to take on/off.
