Gaiters (primary Winter but all season)

What type/brand of gaiters are recommended for Winter, but can also be used during other seasons when conditions warrant? Recommended brands? EMS vs Name Brand?

I will have to stop at EMS, Mountaineer, LP outfitters/shops. Anyone use Outdoor Research Flex-Tex II? Seems cheap....too cheap? Heard too stiff also.

Primary use is Winter on most likely a broken trail not fresh power on herd path.

Thanks!
