A History of Chaps

Early cowboys worked on ranches and spent their days riding in wild terrain, with cattle, in all weather conditions. Cowboys spent most of their working time on horseback, so protective clothing became essential.

Chaps protect the cowboy from the rope burns that could occur from catching, holding down, and working with cattle, horses, or other livestock. Chaps also form a protective shield over the legs to help prevent cuts and grazes when riding through vegetation such as low scrub, bushes, thickets, or cacti, which often have vicious thorns.

Correct Gun Belt or Pants Belt Measurement

If you want to keep it simple your belt size is
almost always about 4 inches larger than your jean size.
Ex: If you wear a
size 40 jean you would order a 44 inch belt.

Getting the correct gun belt measurement is easy if you follow some simple steps.

  1. Put on a pair of britches/pants you plan to wear with your gun belt

  2. Have handy any belt that currently fits you. You can even use a piece of string.

  3. Put the belt on and buckle it where you will wear your gun belt Slightly down over your hips in most cases. Remember the gun belt will be supporting another 4 pounds per pistol and holster {about 3 lbs for the pistol; 1 lb for the holster} That weight will drag the belt down. You may want to go another notch tighter in your measuring.

  4. Make note of the most comfortable hole in which the buckle goes through.

  5. Lay the belt on a flat surface and measure from the end of the buckle to the most comfortable hole. See picture below.

  6. Distance from the buckle end to the centre hole of your belt will be the measurement you supply us with. This is now your gun-belt size.

  7. Generally this measurement should be about 3 to 4 inches larger than your jean size.
