Best gaiters to use with a BARE Nex-Gen?

[Mr.X]

Just in case you havent dove with a drysuit before, gators may not be necessary. I would suggest that you get your suit and learn to dive it without them. I have to say that I have never used them before and I really cant understand the point of having them. I understand the concept and what they are designed to do I just cant justify why they are necessary. I did take the drysuit course when I got my first suit and I do where ankle weights to keep my legs from drifting up.

I dive off the NJ coast where it is cold, dark, deep and strong currents and I have never had a problem using my suit. Additinally, I have done commercial diving and public safety diving all while wearing a drysuit.

Maybe I'm missing something but I dont see why anyone who knows how to dive a drysuit would want to wear gators. I am not trying to knock those who use them, I just dont get it. Based upon my expereince I dont see why they would be necessary.

If you get a good suit you probably won't need gaiters. However, I bought a discount drysuit for a terrific bargain and they have a little too much in the calves. So, you need gaiters if you want to maintain some horizontal trim.

I also think Halcyon make the best gaiters. I bough some OMS ones for this discount suit and they are not the best. Ok, so why am I diving discount...my custom DUI is out for repairs.
