Half chaps

[ksmedd]

Can anyone recommend reasonably-priced half chaps - for flat work, mainly in a riding school, only. I hate anything bulky clothing-wise when riding, but accept I need a bit more protection than jodhs and short boots! Thanks ...

I use Just Chaps ones and like them a lot. think they were about £20.
I've seen Muck Boot ones too, they look nice.

I'd recommend the Loveson ones I bought recently, cost about £24, nice and light but still stretchy for those calf muscles. Had Shires ones before but they were a bit bulky.

Just Chaps for me - they wash and wear really well. I've got several pairs - including some of these very lightweight, summer chaps www.justchaps.co.uk/shop1.cfm?ITEMID=10&CFID=814774&CFTOKEN=78135736

I got them to wear in Italy and they were brilliant - no sweaty legs for me! LOL

I would recommend Loveson ones as well, very light and thin, but do the job well. Sorry carolj, but i brought mine for about £18. I expect they are a slightly different model. The ones i have are great, as you can sling them in the washing machine, time after time.
I also have big calves, but shorts legs and they still fit, not like some makes.

i have got some neoprene ones and they are fab (can't for the life of me remember what make) they are great and very stretchy and thin so not to bulky

Shire are quite good, very lightweight and the suedette ones go in the washing machine.

Thanks again - pay day next week, then I'm off shopping.
