With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

What are the X-Gaiters?
In their own words "Outdoor Research was founded on the X-Gaiter". This should give you a good indication that this product has served the test of time! The X-Gaiters are designed to be worn over your mountaineering boots to provide enough insulation for 8000m peaks without the bulk and weight.
What are they made of?
A 90D ripstop stretch double weave provides rugged durability against the elements that still allows for a flexible on-off design, enhanced by a stretchy and snug neoprene along the ankle and back of the calf. A neoprene circumference grips the edge of your boot and stays put without slippage, and a velcro entrance allows easy manipulation, even when dexterity is compromised by large mitts. Its versatile design balances the best and worst qualities of crampons with a pliable lip that secures over your toe and heel welts, while an exterior silkscreen print acts as a scuff guard to resist punctures caused by these fail-safe tools. Trusted by NASA, the compression-resistant and advanced warmth of PrimaLoft Aerogel insulation covers the toes and entire lower half of boot.
What are their features?
Perhaps their most useful feature is the ability to fit over both mountaineering and ski touring boots. Finally, an adjustable shock cord is easily manipulated and field-maintainable in the event of any emergency.
