Jerry,
That sort of a gaiter also serves very nicely to cover a goiter, should you be so unfortunate as to develop one on your calf... However, I had in mind gaiters of a pacing or trotting sort, jejeje™
And then, of course, should you be so fortunate as to have a tail-gaiter you've bet on finish in front for a change (a nice piece of change, in fact), then you needs must be careful when walking home from the track, for there are numerous alley-gaiters lurking in the shadows, waiting for a chance to fleece the winnings from handsome men in gaiters and top hats such as yourself...
