When it comes to venomous snakes, Australians know a thing or two.

Australia is home to some of the world's most venomous snakes. It's a place where serious snake bite protection isn't a luxury — it's a necessity.

Meet Clogger SnakeSafe Snake Gaiters — the Australian classic, now available in the USA.

Developed for the demanding Australian outdoors, SnakeSafe gaiters provide lightweight, durable snake bite protection for outdoor workers, farmers, hikers and anyone venturing into snake country.

And these aren't just ordinary snake gaiters.

Tested Against Some of the World's Most Venomous Snakes

SnakeSafe gaiters have been rigorously tested by Living with Wildlife, an Australian snake and wildlife specialist, against venomous Australian snakes, including the notorious Taipan and Eastern brown snake.

But we didn't stop there.

We took SnakeSafe to Texas and tested it against the Eastern Diamondback — America's largest rattlesnake.

The result? No fang penetration recorded in the reported tests.

From Australia's rugged outback to America's forests, farms and wilderness, SnakeSafe provides tested protection when you need it most.

Real Protection. Real Encounter.

"I was using a brush cutter in a drainage gully at work today while wearing a pair of Clogger SnakeSafe gaiters and, all of a sudden, I feel this pressure on my right leg. I turn around and see a 2m (over 6 foot) Taipan hanging on, so I flick my foot backwards to remove the snake. I inspected my chaps and the punctures didn't go through the gaiters, saving me from being bitten."

Important Safety Information

SnakeSafe gaiters have demonstrated resistance to fang penetration in testing with venomous Australian snakes and the North American Eastern Diamondback. However, no snake gaiter is completely snake proof, and protection cannot be guaranteed in every circumstance.

Recommendations

• Avoid snakes and areas with known snake populations wherever possible. SnakeSafe gaiters are a last line of defence, not a substitute for avoiding contact.

• Wear suitable protective boots and pants alongside the gaiters.

• Following a suspected snake bite, seek emergency medical attention immediately. Avoid handling potentially venom-contaminated equipment without suitable protection.

Treatment of SnakeSafe Gaiters Following a Bite

Wear a protective face mask, eye protection, gloves and full-body overalls. Wash the gaiter in methylated spirits or alcohol and dry.
