Basic chink with a 3 snap and dee thigh closure, Made from start to finish in the USA:
This snap and dee option uses a spring snap that clips into a dee ring under the point where the conchos are located, this is how the upper leg is held closed. The snap is tied on to a 3/4" strip of leather and the size can be adjusted by moving the knot outward or inward. Those that prefer snap and dee thigh closures like them because they are fast to put on and take off. Clipping the spring snap into the dee ring is easier to work with than a buckle and strap. The snap and dee chink can also be worn loosely in the leg without the worry of a strap working its way out of a buckle. That being said: the majority of our sales are still buckle/strap thigh closures.
Please see the measuring instructions in the photos above. You need to select your chink size by using the upper thigh measurement, if your measured hip size doesn't fit the hip size range of your selected chap size, you can add an additional backbelt during the order process to fit your particular hip measurement.
The chink in the photo is a medium temper smooth grained non-oil tan leather in a tan color and has a darker high contrast top yoke and side yoke. This same leather may not be available at the time of your order. All chinks are made with earthtone leathers and will vary in leather characteristics. You may inform us of the characteristics that you would prefer and we will accommodate as closely as possible.
See the range of earthtone colors in the photos above: Here you will find a range of colors that may be found in our inventory of chaps, the swatches are numbered. If you have a specific color request, list the color or colors that you like when checking out (a message box will be available during checkout. List the colors that you would like and we will send them if they happen to be available. We don't guarantee availability of your selected color or colors.
Please read our return policy prior to ordering.

We are cattlemen and westerners at heart and needed chinks for our son in the Navy in CA. I was not sure about size and made my order with comments about that. I received a call from a friendly, informed woman who questioned me and offered to put a few more holes in the belt for my son, and asked me if the color she had would be acceptable. I was thrilled, he loves them and says they are like custom made!! THANK YOU for wonderful service, products and USA made workmanship and business service. You are great!!

The pair of chinks I got were of the highest quality. I am extremely pleased. Plus, I ordered them late in the day on a Monday and I received them by the following Saturday. Excellent value, excellent service!

I'm all smiles! The chinks fit perfectly, are great quality, and are by far the best deal I've found. I had a complicated order with some malfunctions but the office took good care of me and was very friendly and flexible. *A note on size- I was right between a small and a medium with a 23" upper thigh measurement. I ended up going with a small and they are just the right size, I'm very glad I didn't go bigger.

I ordered my chinks on monday and had them on friday. Kelly in the office sent me pictures I could look at and decide between. The measuring chart is a big bonus if you dont understand the way they should fit. I compete in cowboy mounted shooting and I will let new shooters know that if they need good chinks or chaps look here first there a great company and a USA made product.
