Everyday chaps in short length

[minimex2]

I want some chaps but need a short length.

Ive looked at past posts and a few people rated Loveson Ledbury but theyve been discontinued in short (and regular is too long) Tried calling about 10 shops to see if they had a odd pair still lying around but sadly not.

Kids ones arent wide enough and fuller fillies are short but too wide.

Need approx 14wide, 14 high.

Does anyone else know any other reasonably priced (£30ish) washable makes ?

thanks a lot

My friend has some really stretchy shires ones that I think might be a shorter length... they have lasted years so good value too.
I have Tredstep ones and I would fully recommend them, they have a huge range of sizes (mine are shorter and a little wider than most chaps) so look lovely on as they fit so well and mine still look really nice even though I have had them about 2 years now (I don't wear them in winter though). I think mine were about £50 and if they are something you wear a lot I think they are worth it. I used to have Mountain horse ones in a shorter length which I liked too and I'm pretty sure they were washed a few times!

I will be watching this thread as I am in need of some new ones and I am short

I use the JustChaps neoprene ones - they wash and wash. I've got the shortest legs on the yard and they are short enough for me.

You'd be better saving for a dearer pair, the likes of Tredstep or Ariat do really good sizes. I have Tredstep ones and had them for years.

I've just bought some airmesh chaps from Performance Equestrian - they're endurance chaps but they do them in plain colours like navy, brown or black www.performance-equestrian.com

Priced reasonably too at about £20.

I have tredstep. I'm 4'10 so they fit me perfectly!
Got mine online here:

They've worn really well. Tried Loveson, but didn't fit my fat legs and rubbed at the top.

try the tuffa ones as well, they do short lengths, not sure if they do them in the washable tho, but deffo in suede

Tuffa I would think would be your best bet (having tried to find long enough in small enough width)

Im short too.. ended up getting shires gaiters! They were only £17 ... bargain... and have lasted ages! I use them everyday in all weathers. Brush off any dry mud and occassionly wipe over with leather conditioner keeps them nice
