Chaps
Chaps ( or ) are sturdy coverings for the legs consisting of leggings and a belt. They are buckled on over
trousers with the chaps' integrated belt, but unlike trousers they have no seat and are not joined at the crotch. They are designed to provide protection for the legs and are usually made of
leather or a leather-like material. They are most commonly associated with the
cowboy culture of the American west as a protective garment to be used when riding a
horse through brushy terrain. In the modern world, they are worn for both practical work purposes and for exhibition or show use.
