FAQs

Are these chaps suitable for competition?

Yes, their sleek, tailored look makes them appropriate for both daily training and casual or schooling competitions.

How do I clean the leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for daily cleaning. Apply a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for saddlery leather to maintain the material.

Can I use these with any paddock boot?

They are designed to be compatible with most standard equestrian paddock boots due to the elastic shoe insert at the front.

What does the 'XL/Wide' designation mean?

This indicates the chaps are sized for a larger calf circumference than standard sizes, allowing for a comfortable fit without the leather being overly tight.

Do I need to break them in?

Like most high-quality leather products, the chaps may feel slightly stiff initially but will contour to your leg after a few hours of riding.

Troubleshooting

Zip is difficult to pull up

Check for dirt or sand in the teeth. Use a dry cloth to clean the zip track or a dedicated zipper lubricant.

Chaps feel too tight at the calf

Ensure the elastic inserts are properly positioned and not twisted. If comfort remains an issue, consider a wider-fit variant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek and professional aesthetic
  • Enhanced leg flexibility due to integrated elastic
  • Easy to put on and remove with zip and press stud
  • Reinforced structure for extended lifespan

Cons

  • Requires proper measurement to ensure correct sizing
  • Leather requires regular conditioning to maintain quality
  • Limited to specific sizing categories like XL/Wide

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, ensure you are wearing your preferred riding breeches and paddock boots before trying on the chaps. Measure your calf circumference at the widest point and your leg length from the floor to the back of the knee to match with the available size variants.

For care, wipe down the leather after every ride to remove dirt and dust. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple, and ensure the zip tracks remain free of debris to maintain smooth operation.
