I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but, I'm looking for a pair of half chaps online but my legs are quite chunky and I know an X large doesn't fit, does anyone know any reliable sites that would have a bigger size of half chaps?
I used to fit into normal dressage boot easily over a year ago, but I have not rode for about a year, and yes I am now trying to lose weight.

Thank you :)
 
Depends on the width of your calves :) Some XL's are tiny in one brand! but larger in another.

The majority of the usual makes go from 16-17.5 on the extra wides.

Some will give you about an inch of stretch too.

For larger than that there is fuller fillies, those chaps go from
"Widths of Wide (W) fitting from 15-18"), Extra Wide (XW) fitting from 17-20", and Double Extra Wide (XXW) fitting from 20-23 "
"3 inches of stretch minimum on each size."
 
yeah the ones I tried in a shop were 15"-16" with little stretch, I'm checking out the website now, I can't believe how fast I got replies, thank you both :)
 
My calves are huge and just get bigger with exercise as I'm fitter-I have cheapy shires chaps and they fit well.I think they are a large and they do an X-large too. They have a good elasticated panel so are fairly adjustable.
 
I gave up trying to get the correct size online and spent ages in my local tack shop trying different brands and sizes. finally found a perfect fit in a MEDIUM when xxl in other brands din't even meet round my leg. Will check the brand tomorrow but think they were requisite.
 
Ive got Loveson half chaps size XL & my calves are 19.5", im ashamed to admit! Really nice & comfy as well, im on my 2nd pair, but only because someone broke my last ones :(
 
Fuller Fillies for me. The better leather ones are excellent and smart enough to dressage in. The brown match boots nicely.
 
equetector - great customer service and quick postage.

I still have chunky legs but thankfully I managed to find a pair of mountain horse long boots that fit

Do you mind me asking what size your calves are & what size you bought with the Mountain Horse boots, id love a long pair but struggled to find any.
