FAQs
How do I measure for the correct size?
Measure the height from the sole of your boot to the back of your knee (where the chap should end). Then, measure the widest part of your calf. Compare these measurements to the size guide provided for the Requisite Half Chaps.
Can I wear these with any type of boots?
Yes, they are designed to be worn over most standard riding boots or paddock boots. Ensure the boot is not excessively bulky for a comfortable fit.
Are these suitable for jumping?
These half chaps are designed for everyday wear and comfort. For disciplines requiring advanced protection or support, full-length boots may be more appropriate.
How often should I clean my suede half chaps?
Regular brushing after use will help maintain their appearance. Deep cleaning should be done as needed, depending on frequency of use and exposure to dirt.
What is the material of the gusset?
The gusset is made of elasticated Nubuck, providing flexibility and a custom fit.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede. Hand-clean using appropriate suede care products to avoid damaging the material.
Troubleshooting
Zip is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zip. Gently try to move the zip up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.
Chaps feel too tight or too loose
Refer to the sizing chart to ensure you have selected the correct size based on your height and calf measurement. The elasticated gusset offers some flexibility, but accurate initial sizing is key.
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material. For stains, consult a suede cleaning guide for appropriate methods and products.
