Winter gaiters

Hi guys

I'm pretty new to hiking & my Ste tyres are a pair of low cut targheeII. I'm wondering if there is a pair of gaiters that would allow me to continue using them throughout winter (rain/snow) or do I need to get a mid pair. Obviously I'm trying to avoid the later hence my question & if need be I could wear a pair of seal skinz, but if there is a gaiter out there that someone knows of that will turn my targees into a winter boot then please share.
Many thanks...Bart

G'Day Bart my personal experience has been that winter and even a little snow means proper boots, while I have met people who have used trainers and very low breathable shoes in snow a couple of those people have also had to borrow gear from me to combat very cold feet, bread bags in a couple of cases and my spare winter slippers in another

Thanks for the reply mate. I've just brought a pair os StS quagmires & they fit pretty snugly. Coupled with my seal skins I'm hoping they'll be ok
