Description

This color of chaps is so popular that I have to keep this leather in stock. This rich dark “chocolate” leather is as soft and comfortable as it looks, even the name of the color (Chocolate) is inviting. When making a pair of chaps, I always try to envision where they might be worn- the circumstances- I see these being worn on Sundays, at horse shows, or some other spacial occasion; not to say that you wouldn’t want to wear them everyday- but there is nothing wrong with having an everyday pair, AND a dress pair. This fine soft 3-4 oz. chap leather will make you fall in love with leather all over again. The color combination of the dark chocolate, and the natural finished yolk allows each color to support the other without competing. The brass conches add to the richness of the chocolate, but if you are partial to silver- trust me- the chaps still look great!

Chaps

Chaps, or Chinks (from the name “Chinkaderos”), are sometimes referred to as a half, or 3/4 chap, stops three or four inches below the knee and typically has four to six inches of fringe. It is cooler, and therefore desirable in warmer climates, or during the summer months. With fringes, and the looser fit, it is popular with the rodeo cowboys and adds to the spectacle of the cowboy on a bucking bronc!

Chap Leather

Chap leather is usually either 3-4 oz., or 4-5 oz. Leather is nearly always defined as being within a range, such as 3-4, or 4-5, some variation in thickness always exists. The heaver, or thicker it is, the more protection, and theoretically longevity, but the trade-off is that heaver usually means stiffer as well, so you just don’t have the same comfort level. It really comes down to what you are going to use them for. If they are going to be for riding/working, you will probably lean toward the heavier leather; if, however, you are just making a fashion statement, or wearing them for show, you will be happy with the lighter- don’t forget, we are talking about leather!

One other thing to keep in mind when ordering chaps, is the weather. Shotguns, for instance, are great for the winter, or cooler months, but can get pretty warm in the central valley summer. Chinks, on the other hand, are great for the summer, while still adding a little warmth for the winter. Best case scenario- one of each! We can even make you a matching pair if you like.
