Full details

FAQs

How do I choose the right size?

Measure the widest part of your calf and the length from the back of your knee to your ankle. Match these measurements against the E.L.T sizing chart, keeping in mind the additional stretch provided by the elastic inserts.

Can these chaps be worn for competitions?

While their primary design is for daily training and comfort, their sleek leather finish makes them acceptable for many schooling shows and club-level events, depending on local rules.

Are these chaps waterproof?

They are made of leather, which provides some natural resistance to moisture, but they are not waterproof. If they get soaked, air dry them naturally away from heat sources.

How often should I condition the leather?

Depending on usage, conditioning every 2-4 weeks is recommended to maintain the integrity of the leather and prevent it from drying out.

Do I need special boots for these chaps?

They are designed to be compatible with most standard leather paddock boots.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is difficult to pull up

Ensure the chaps are centered on your leg and that no debris is caught in the zipper teeth. You may also use a specialized zipper wax if the mechanism feels stiff.

Chaps feel too tight at the calf

Verify that you have selected the appropriate width (e.g., Wide or X-Wide) for your calf size. Leather may stretch slightly, but consistent discomfort suggests a sizing mismatch.

Press stud will not stay closed

Check the underside of the stud for dirt or arena sand buildup. Clean with a soft brush and ensure the leather flap is correctly aligned.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent flexibility due to multiple elastic insert points
  • Tailored, sleek aesthetic suitable for training
  • Durable leather material for long-term use
  • Easy-to-use zip and press stud combination
  • Wide range of sizes and widths available

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement for the best fit
  • Leather care is necessary to maintain suppleness
  • Less breathable than synthetic mesh alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper fit, measure your calf circumference and leg height while wearing your standard riding breeches. When putting the chaps on, pull the zipper up fully before fastening the bottom press stud. Compatibility-wise, these chaps are designed to pair with standard paddock boots. To care for your chaps, wipe them down with a damp cloth after each ride to remove arena dust and sweat. Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
