I don't have full chaps but I'd like to get some for riding in winter!! I was wondering something though, I have ariat winter boots right now, can you wear chaps over those? I'm also wanting to try the winter paddock boots and half chaps. It would be sorta redundant to wear chaps over half chaps wouldnt it? Hehe. I'm afraid of my ankles getting cold though. I was thinking full chaps wouldnt work for me because of those reasons.

Half chaps I love though!!! I hate wearing tall boots.

Before you criticize someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way you'll be a mile from them, and you'll have their shoes.
