I’ll be passing through Gatlinburg and plan to visit Clingmans Dome. Is there a retailer that carries Dirty Girl Gaiters?

Judging by this list, nothing near there.

The REI on Knoxville carries lightweight Outdoor Research gaiters similar to Dirty Girls in construction .
You do know that Clingman's Dome Road is closed during the winter?
There's an Uncle Lems outfitter in Pigeon Forge along Parkway. They might have something
one could order direct from Dirty Girl and have them shipped to a local PO/hostel/hotel etc.
You can still reach Clingman's Dome, but with the road closed, it's a 7 mile hike (one way) from New Found Gap either hiking the road (I've even heard of people skiing the road) or the AT.
You'll also have to keep a watch on the GSMNP Temporary Road Closures web page. They've been getting some snow and a few wind storms this winter that have been closing 441 from time to time.
Direct order from the web. Another option is http://www.runningfunky.com/gaiters-1/
