Don't overlock plastic - why, because it doesn't fray, and it becomes like a sheet of perforated postage stamps - easy to rip apart. I had decided to make my own gaiters but failed to even start. I should have gone to the outdoor shop and had a look around to see how their gaiters were made. Flared pants might be a good basis for recycling into gaiters.

The plastic we used was pretty pliable. I think you'd see that problem more if it was a thinner or more brittle plastic. We didn't have that issue.
