I got my leather over pants and they're great. They have zippers all the down the legs and snaps also. Velcro at the waist. I think they're warmer than chaps, and don't make your keester stick out like a monkey butt.

I was at the Big E yesterday and there was a tent set up from Walter Dyer.

www.walterdyer.com

I tried on a decent pair of real thick leather chaps and they were definitely nice. No lining though. Should they have a lining? What about seams? The zippers were on the outside and the front and backs are done in two pieces. They wanted $169. for em and at that price, why not spend another hundred bucks and get a Vanson Chap. Any opinion's?

Thanx for the links!

I wear chaps, myself. What was the question again? Your avatar is distracting me.

Aren't all chaps "assless"? Otherwise they'd be leather pants right?

I ordered a pair of pant from Leatherup, x-elements brand I believe, they zip up the sides for easy on and off over boots. I wear them over my work clothes in the winter. They were $70 IIRC.

Damn! We're all slaves to the "All Might Vagina" ain't we? Gotta love dem broads eh?

I tried on a pair of HD chaps today. No lining, and they want $189. rubbles for em. **** that!

Plus, they're made in China!

I think maybe pants at this point cuz the chaps make me look like I'm carrying a load of shit in my pant's!

I like my chaps, they are lined and keep me warn in cold weather and dry in wet weather and you can take them off when it gets warm.
If they weren't asszless, they wouldn't be chaps now would they?

I just got a pair of Xelement chaps from Leather Up today.

Very cheap! Ya I don't know why I fall for it every time. Paid $75. for em and they aint worth $50. Very thin split leather, weak snaps and NOT road worthy IMO.

It's unbelievable that anyone would recommend these.

I'm gonna see if I can get a refund for em and buy some real deal ones.
