We recommend measuring over your heaviest riding jeans and boots; if you are between sizes or plan to wear thermal layers, size up to ensure full range of motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Why should I choose Shotgun chaps over Batwing styles?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Shotgun chaps are the premier choice for cold weather and heavy brush because their \"stovepipe\" fit traps body heat and eliminates the gaps found in flared designs. They also provide the streamlined look required for Western Equitation and Horsemanship classes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Do these chaps require a break-in period?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, high-quality full-grain leather is naturally thick and may feel stiff initially. They will soften and mold to your unique leg shape with regular use, or you can accelerate the process by applying a high-quality leather conditioner or neatsfoot oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65-3275-LG\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weaver Leather","offers":[{"title":"LG","offer_id":47432465252573,"sku":"65-3275-LG","price":214.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"MD","offer_id":47432465285341,"sku":"65-3275-MD","price":215.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SM","offer_id":47432465318109,"sku":"65-3275-SM","price":266.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":47432465350877,"sku":"65-3275-XL","price":221.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/premium-full-grain-leather-shotgun-chaps-for-western-riding-65-3275-lg.webp?v=1771346672","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/chaps-shotgun-full-grain","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
