yotebuster1200 Report post Posted March 18, 2010 I am sure that this subject has been talked about and my questions answered but. I have looked through the forum and I have used the search and have not found what I was looking for. I was hoping to get a list of some good places to order chap leather from. And what is a fair price for chap leather? I know there are some variables to that. I guess I was just hoping to find out what you guys (and gals) expect to pay. Thank for the help, Scott Hansen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimKleffner Report post Posted March 19, 2010 Scott What kind of chaps are you wanting to make? I buy my working chap/ chink leathers from Sheridan Leather, just call Luke or Vandy for prices. I'm currently working on a pair of bull riding chaps and priced around and bought from Hide House. Hide House leather was 4.25 a sq foot. Both places have been very helpful Happy tooling Tim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Report post Posted March 19, 2010 Hi Scott, I guess about 70% of the leather either now or previously on the hoof, could be construed by someone to be chap leather. Full grain, splits, everything but veg tan and rawhide. So giving you a price without knowing exactly what is going to be difficult. Anywhere from a dollar or less a foot to four or five. Go to Hide House and Siegel websites and zero in on what you need. Art I am sure that this subject has been talked about and my questions answered but.
