Here is a review of my TurtleSkin snake gaiters and some modifications I had done to them by Mrs. Glenda Green. I've been wearing these for the last five turkey seasons. Sorry for the terrible section in the middle where I had to wrestle with the tripod lol. Hope y'all enjoy.

I took mine to Unicoi and left them with her after you sent a pic of yours.  She covered them in old bottomland.  I had them back in just over a week.  Glenda does a fantastic job.

I immediately gave your video a like when you said, "before some of y'all get your panties in a wad and start crying fanboy and Pinhotti, blah, blah, blah... quit with that crap".  :TooFunny:

Great review as well. I've been wearing some other gators and been looking at the Turtle Skins for a while so it helps me know what I would getting into with those.

Thanks I appreciate that.

 I really enjoyed you sharing the modifications to your gators.  Glenda is one awesome lady... She made modifications to one of her satchels for me and we added a claw sling and hookup for her short box and long box holster on the shoulder strap. If anyone wants to see pictures of her modifications to the satchel pm message me with your cell number.  Her products are USA made ...

Thanks for sharing, nice mods there.  Now I need to speak with Ms. Glenda...

Love my turtleskins.  Invaluable in the early season chasing bears in the mountains and gobblers in the spring.  Worth every penny.

Miss Glenda does fantastic work!

I see I have an add on the beginning of my video now. Not sure how that happened. I probably can adjust the settings on my laptop. I recorded the video on my phone and uploaded from my phone so I just went with it. I guess I'll be getting rich soon

This will be my first spring wearing turtle skin snake gaiters.  Its going to be nice retiring the hot snake boots.

Thanks Burney.I think it's about time he gets a buddy in there. Maybe one with some white tips would be nice!

I have a pair of turtle skins and wear them religiously when out and about. Now I'm concerned that one is able to sew on them. If a sewing needle can penetrate the material then it would make me wonder about their effectiveness.

I've thought about that to. They're supposed to be tested against live rattlesnakes. Also that sewing need is a sharp piece of steel and it takes a heavy duty sewing machine to do it. My daughter has a nice $600 sewing machine but it won't sew material this heavy duty. Also the gaiters are usually never tight against my leg so the snake would have to penetrate the gaiter and then the pants and press all the way into your skin. Hope that helps you feel better. What I worry about is crawling around in the dark or sitting against the tree in the darkness and getting it on the hand. I usually try to shine my little red headlamp around the tree before I get too comfortable.
