Why do people blouse their pants?
>looks nicer than having loose fabric that inevitably frays at the heel, and gives your pants a more tapered look>keeps you warmer, especially if it's windy>keeps debris out of both your boots, as someone who uses a chainsaw for work this is a big one>makes stomping on and through brush easier because there's no cuff to snag on sticks etc and there's less loose fabric for thorns to snarestuff to avoid if you want to blouse your pants
>not wearing 8" boots. anything shorter than that and you won't get a good interface between blouse and boot cuff because it will have to extend too far down towards your ankle>don't blouse tight pants or jeans. you'll look like an idiot and it either won't accomplish anything or will come undone>try not to look like wannabe military. not a good lookimo puttees and gaiters are stupid. puttees are elaborate leg wraps that were used to accomplish something akin to blousing with the heavy wool pants of a bygone era. unless you're a ww1 reenactor, don't bother. gaiters are for people who bought a mid rise hiking boot from rei only to realize it is simultaneously too low and loose around the cuff to keep out debris and too high for good ankle mobility
