About Gaiters & Half Chaps
Both leather gaiters and horse riding half chaps are designed to be worn with jodhpur or paddock boots. They are popular with many riders as they are convenient, comfortable, easy to wear and a cheaper alternative to long riding boots. However there are some differences between the two
Gaiters
Leather gaiters are designed to create the illusion of a long riding boot. Leather gaiters fit smoothly around the riders calf to offer the rider support and protection when riding. Although they are generally made from leather, leather gaiters tend to be more soft, and flexible compared to long riding boots making them comfortable to wear from the get go. Leather gaiters also have secure zippers up the back of the leg and are cut slightly higher on the outside, giving them an elegant and sleek finish, thats great for competition
Chaps
Like leather gaiters, chaps are made to fit over your riding shoes and give you better grip and more support in the saddle. The main difference between a leather gaiter and a half chap is that chaps usually have a zipper on the outside and can be made from a range of different materials such as synthetic leather or suede. They are a great value choice for casual riders.
Fitting Advice
When it comes to fitting your leather gaiters or chaps to make sure to measure the widest part of your calf, and the height up the back of your leg from the floor to the back of your knee. More details can be found on our Tips & Fitting Advice page but if you require further assistance with your order please contact our team.
