If the gaitor velcros in front then yes, although it depends on the desigh. I find it difficult for me with some gaitors to get them on and hook them through the laces far enough forward when doing that, but some it works ok with. Still the "lace" ones will be a pita when they shred and/or come undone. Trust me, get ones with real straps, they're better - if you're concerned about wear buy an extra set of straps with the gaitors. (they do eventually wear out but it takes a while)
