		Laced Style BatwingsI usually make these chaps in 4 oz oil tan for pleasure use, and 6 oz oil tan if they are to be used in heavy brush. The leg is full cut for added protection and is fastened with 3 snaps on each leg. The inside of the leg is cut on a curve for ease of movement. The belt is cut from russet bridle leather, and can be either plain or carved as per your preference. The lacing takes the place of stitching, making these chaps very authentic and durable.A very outstanding pair of chaps

		Hello Bob–just a quick note to thank you for the timely arrival of my new chaps. They arrived on the Greyhound, safe and sound, and mighty quick I would have written sooner, but all my spare time now is wrapped up in pounding the trail on my horse, with my new chaps!! Gotta tell you, that I am deeply happy with your work, and I fully expect them to last me a lifetime of good riding up in the hills, and keep me from all manner of harm. Thank you very much for all your hard work, and the skill and dedication that you bring to your craft. I am starting a savings fund for the saddle of my dreams, and I think you might have a project on your hands by the time winter rolls around, in time for next spring On your web site, you call it the “All Around” saddle. My horse is only 4 years old this month, so he has some growing to do before the summer is out, and he is getting all the food and exercise I can give him. Thanks for a splendid pair of chaps, and I think you have found a new customer. A friend was by yesterday, and by Golly, did he fall in love with your work. Sincerely Richard.
