fox creek leather chaps
« on: October 30, 2014, 09:19:46 PM »

I am considering having a pair of fox creek leather chaps custom built. I was wondering if anyone here has any fox creek leather that can report on the quality of their products?

I've had some of their stuff over the years also.  Always very good stuff.

I agree with Pete and 2lane!  Great products at a fair price.

I also have worn their chaps for years and love them. Leather feels like butter at a very fair price. Have had up great and I always carry on the bike rolled up in the bag during the winter even between rides.

One thing about the custom built chaps are the fact that they are not lined and lining is not an option that I can add. However, one of the options is thicker leather. I guess if I get the thicker ones they should be plenty warm enough without a liner?? It is good to hear that they are a quality product and have good customer service.

Instead of thicker leather, try flannel lined jeans underneath, works for me in any weather!

Roy, you will like 'em.  Got a pair of the chaps that I don't use often but have had for 10 years.  They are very comfortable compared to the "off the shelf" chaps.  Fox Creek also makes some very nice leather gloves and vests (got both).  I shoulda listened to the sales person when purchasing the vest as I got it a bit small.  The gloves fit like.....well, a glove.  You will like their stuff and their customer service.

I'll add to the consensus - buy 'em. I've had a pair for years. Thick leather, very soft and pliable, warm - top quality product. And the folks at Fox Creek are top notch at customer service.

Imho, I just got the generic cheapo's that you cut to length on your own for maybe $30 many, many moons ago, and they still work great. They definitely are not fancy, but I don't care about that. Like someone mentioned earlier, I have a couple of pair of flannel lined Wrangler jeans that I wear in the cooler weather, that by themselves are good down to about freezing.  Frankly, I've only used the chaps a few times, as I'm not the type to wear them unless I have to. I know some like wearing them year around for better protection and in those cases, perhaps the custom jobbers make more sense.

Thanks firedood. Hopefully they will still give that 10% discount. I will order some a little after the first of the year. Gotta buy Christmas presents first!!
