FAQs

Are these chaps suitable for competition wear?

While they are highly functional for daily stable work and riding, they are generally intended for protection rather than show-ring attire.

Can I wear these over bulky jeans?

Yes, the adjustable hip band allows for layering over heavier trousers like jeans or thick breeches.

Do the stirrups go inside or outside my boots?

The elastic stirrups are designed to sit under the sole of your boot to keep the leg of the chap from riding up.

How do I know which size to pick?

These chaps follow standard sizing; we recommend selecting your normal trouser size, keeping in mind they are designed to fit over other clothing.

Is the material machine washable?

Yes, you can machine wash them on a gentle cycle, but avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying.

Are these suitable for deep winter riding?

The quilted lining provides good insulation for typical winter weather, though you may want to layer additional thermals underneath in extreme freezing conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water starts soaking through the fabric surface

The DWR finish has likely worn off; clean the garment and apply a technical waterproofing spray to restore the water-repellent properties.

Zips feel stiff or difficult to operate

Check for debris or dried mud in the zipper teeth. Clean with a soft brush and apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof rating effectively blocks heavy rain
  • Easy to put on and remove without taking off boots
  • Environmentally conscious fluorine-free finish
  • Comfortable quilted lining for cold weather
  • Robust zipper construction for long-term durability

Cons

  • Quilted insulation may be too heavy for summer use
  • Polyester material requires specific care to maintain DWR efficacy
  • Limited to specific aesthetic designs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, adjust the clip hip band while wearing your standard riding trousers. The chaps are designed to be worn over regular legwear, so sizing is typically generous.

Care Instructions:

  • Close all zips and clips before laundering.
  • Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
  • Avoid fabric softeners, as these can degrade the DWR finish.
  • Air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the taped seams.
  • Re-apply a waterproofing spray periodically if you notice water no longer beads on the surface.
