man wear whatever ya want to wear,personally i dont liek the cold or wet, so when the weather gets liek that i will put on whatever i can to make sure i cans till ride. it just so happens chaps work wonders for that, if anyoen thinks i look gay to bad im warm and dry'ish, and my ol lady thinks i look hot in them. and yes canadian girls have thier benifits especialy on those cold days they have such wonderful ways of keeping you warm and if your lucky they wont ask your last name or where you live after

If that image pops into your head and you're not gay, you might want to seek out help.
6'1 350 with chaps would be a gay looking fat dude with a beard and tattoos lol.

i'm not sure why you are so bothered that i think chaps look gay. because i think you look gay in your chaps doesn't mean i think your taking a dick in your *** every night! you must have really low self esteem that somebodies opinion bothers you that much. wear your chaps and be happy i'll pass.

take care big fella

If you wear black leather chaps to a Disney Theme Park between Nov. 1 - Dec. 30....I think you get in to the Park for free and participate in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at that Disney Theme park. I want to say it is part of the ride in and ride free plan. Disney is trying to "bring in" older, more realistic characters to it's theme parks this off season. Seriously, check the website.

Arrow This thread sure has 'legs'

I voiced my preference earlier in this thread. To each their own.
I have 2 favorite calenders in my garage.

1) Marisa Miller on her Harley V-Rod Muscle-excellent
2) "Women in Chaps"-these ladies warm me up too

Yes the girls are awesome I must agree... and they do make for comfortable backrests. Fact is I've only had a Canadian right bitch on the bike, in the immoral words of George Thoroughgood:

"Oh she was so nice..."

Wear whatever you like, just don't get all pissed off if not everyone likes it.
Jeans and thermal underwear work fine for me. I'll leave the chaps for other people to wear. Personally I think they look kinda gay but like I said don't worry about it and just wear what you like (unless they clash with your purse then wear something else)

I wear mine over my jeans when riding under 50 degrees. They keep me warm down into the 40's. Besides - they were a bargain at a leather / boot shop in town at 39 bucks! And the girls at work think I look good in them.....lol

Well, change the facts and I will change my answer. Nobody ever said that these chaps they speak of were for a lady. Totally different story, buy two pairs.....

I wear my chaps around the house with no underpants. My wife wears hers to bed sometimes. We are the Chapmans!!
