What is Motorcycle Chap? – All Basics

Motorcycle chaps are the ultimate accessory for cruiser bikers. Also known as shotgun chaps or stovepipes, these protective leg coverings have been popular with motorcycle riders for decades. The original idea for chaps came from the cowboys who would wear over-the-leg leather coverings to protect their legs from the elements. Today, they are popular with the cruiser biker community and are a great way to add style and protection to your ride.

A good pair of motorcycle chaps will be made of high-quality leather and will last for years. The leather is water-resistant and durable, and will not stretch or tear. If you want extra protection, buy thick leather chaps, which can also be worn under pants and shirts. Thinner ones will have the same protection as thicker ones, while those with extra material may be a bit too hot. If you’re a beginner, don’t be afraid to experiment with different styles and colors until you find one that’s perfect for you.

When choosing motorcycle chaps, you should consider the quality of leather. A high-quality pair will be made of leather that is full-grain and supple. In addition to leather, you should also consider other materials, such as textile fabrics such as nylon or polyester. You should also pay attention to the denier of the material, as a lower denier will not be as effective at breaking the wind. If you’re on a budget, you’ll be happier with a cheaper, more comfortable motorcycle-specific pair of chaps.
