I'M FROM WAY BACK WHEN. BUT, I LOVE MY CHAPS!!! MAKES YOU STICK LIKE GLUE! I WORE THEM ON TRAILS AND IF I WAS TRAINING, I NEEDED THEM! I LOVE MY CHAPS!! I WORE SHORTS UNDER MINE IN SUMMER.

For years I’ve been wondering what the fringe was for. Thank you so much

[@annalisajensen3325]

You can also cut off the fringe too so if something breaks you can use it to tie it back together

[@nohillforahighstepper]

Fringe also helps the leather dry quicker if it is raining.

My friend was wearing a pair of bull-hide shotgun chaps when he was struck by a Western Diamondback on the Texas panhandle. He got out of the pickup and went to open a cattle gate. Those chaps saved him from a nasty bite.

[@patriothaven671]

Quick tip. Yours are specifically called cutters. They’re attached to the leg above the knee and loose below. Shotgun are attached and close fit all the way down your leg

[@SpiritChil333]

Thank you that was very helpful especially the purpose of the fringe.

@zachwork : I would give Carlos a call, he makes them and ask for dark brown or have him look at picture and see if he has color, they will get darker as you wear from sun light or from conditioning them.

[@ThinkLikeAHorse]

@zachwork : You can order from Lostbuckaroo You can get rough out or smooth and have the strings cut as long as you want, good quality stuff at lostbuckroo.

[@ThinkLikeAHorse]

@zachwork : I put link to lost buckaroo in description, they sell good stuff.

schooling chaps are nice, no flare, and protect the lower leg from getting pinched and protects the outer leg from rails.

I bought a pair of working Batwing chaps in Mexico 3 years ago, the leather is quite thick/sturdy. I've worn them in winter a couple of times, but they are so terribly stiff, that it just hurts wearing them. I've tried getting them more supple, with neatsfoot oil and also with a balm I bought at the same store last year. It does not help thoug. I would like to wear them more. How can I get them more supple? (probably by wearing them more, but it's just to painfull on my knees). Any advice?

[@GoldArmored]

+Mary van den Boogaard put them in the dryer (low heat). Same as wearing them (simulate body heat and movement).

[@MaryvandenBoogaard]

+GoldArmored : thank you. I've tried but only on cold, afraid to do on low heat, but I'll try that. Thank you!

[@gerrycoleman7290]

Wearing them. And I have found that treating them with saddle soap helps. Realize the saddle soap treatment will darken them somewhat.

[@mattwelch4690]

Quick addition/edit:: the chaps are batwing chaps, they enclose at the top of the leg to just above the knee. Shotgun chaps enclose fully (top of the leg to ankle).

[@artemisiagentileschi2400]

Batwing chaps are very full in the leg like bronc riders...shotgun are straight from waist to leg. His are shotgun.

[@bradmetcalf7832]

@@artemisiagentileschi2400 Incorrect. Those are batwing.

[@BelindaTN]

What kind of knife and sheath do you carry or recomend. Such as length of blade type of handle, etc. Thanks!

[@kimballcody3328]

How much do you expect to pay for each pair?

[@jacobsands1663]

Kimball Cody from about 50 to 300. I bought mine on state line tack for around 50

[@bear9020]

Pronounced "shaps".

[@OldNewsNewNews]

Interesting....Thanks..🐎

[@iannickCZ]

I hear just wind in mic... :-(

[@greengrassofhome]

iannickCZ Use good headphones and you will understand the dialogue.

[@carolined3058]

look how young you were

[@gerrycoleman7290]

Still is.

[@hellcat94116]

The ad is despicable. The video is ok

[@cmartens2513]

Oh c'mon... Is this a joke? Anyone worth calling themselves a ranch hand knows "chaps" is pronounced with a soft ch... pronounced shaps. Derived from the Spanish word chaparreras pronounced with a soft ch.

[@myevilplans]
