Botas- worn
by Vaqueros,
just below
the knee,
protecting
the lower
leg, but are
much lighter
than chaps,
a definite
advantage in
the heat of the
South-West.
Botas-
decorated
with spots
and fringe
Botas-
decorated
with spots
and hide up
tops. Bone
buttons.
Buckskin Chaps
trimmed with braids
Hair-On Cowhide Chaps
Note the rolled leather
button, normally the only type of
fastener I use on my chaps, except
for the belt buckle, located just
behind the left hip.
All outside/
visible
edges
are braided.
One of the rare
occassions
I used straps/
buckles for
fasteners on my
chaps. Made
from photos of a pair
of chaps from about
mid 1860's.
Shotgun chap design. The
bottom cuff was quite common
