I'd say the best snake proof gear would be to get you a pair of safety boots (they are different from steel toe boots the steel goes all the way up to the very top of your foot) and a thick pair of well made quality chaps. Or if you can find a store that sells leather rolls you can make your own chaps and buy the leather working needles and thread at a craft store most of them carry leather working tools and such, chaps aren't that hard to make and leather at least where I live is cheap.

Yeah, quite a few places carry them.I have a set myself.Some companies use leather,others use newer stuff to make them lightert like kevlar.Take a look here at few they carry at BassPro Shops.
