I have found that Ariat has the most generious
sizing...I am not familar with the terrains, but you might try the
Ariat ALL AROUND II. They come in
black or chocolate and are water proof suede with a stretchy panel
for a more custom fit. They are new this year and about $90 in
the Dover Saddlery catalog.
Neoprene sounds too restrictive to me I have
several knee braces made out of this material and I can't imagine wearing a
1/2 chap out of it. I guess it would sweat your calves
down!
I'm looking for a pair of lighter weight half chaps. I
currently use a nameless suede brand. They're so old, I can't
even remember where I bought them. They work fine, but are
very hot and bulky. I just ordered the new Ariat terrains but
have to return them because they don't fit me. It doesn't look
like any of the Ariat size offerings will work for me.
Can anyone recommend any other brands? I've heard about
neoprene half chaps, but they sound like they'd be really hot.
Anyone have experience with those?
