Leggin's



Leggings include Chaps, Botas, and Chinks.
Chaps are either Shotgun, named because the legs look like shotgun barrels, batwing with a wide bottom portionthat is loose around the boot, and woolies which are made for colder climate work.
Chinks are for less restrictive fit but still protecting the legs in warmer climates, like the Southwest. They are popular among SASS shooters because of the cooler qualities while competing the authentic look.
Botas, or Gauch pants cover the lower portion of the legs, from the knee down, offering extra protection for thorns, cacti, scrub brush, in hot climates.


Chinks





Chinks were worn by the Vaqueros of California and the Southwest, who sought greater versatility and air circulation while riding in warm climates, Chinks reach 2 - 4inches below the knee, just enough to bnrush the top of the rider's boots. The leg shape is between a batwing & a shotgun chap, clinging close to the leg without being restrictive.
