[QUOTE="user 14190, post: 520012, member: 14190"] We purchased some of the DD for our last trip, we found them to be easy to put on, they do not do up tight around the leg as they tend to sit on the front part of the boots and heels and self support, we had long trousers/trackies on and the idea was that as they were not tight against the leg, there was some air circulation and IF there was a snake bite there was a fair bit of loose material and space for the fangs to get through before they get to skin. Leather ones are mostly fitted tighter up against the leg and do not breath and from previous experience with them, they get hot and sweaty very quickly. They cannot say "will stop" as that means things can go wrong. Graham [/QUOTE]
