gaiters

Wrap-around leg protection for the rider that extends from the ankle to below the knee. Typically made from leather or a leather-like synthetic material with a loop of material or elastic the extends beneath the foot and a zip (or some other fastening) along the back or outside of the leg. They are generally worn in combination with jodhpur or paddock boots and may simulate the appearance of tall riding boots. The term gaiters may be used synonymously or may refer to slightly shorter leg coverings made from waterproof material that are favoured in endurance riding.
