Review on Black Motorcycle Leather Chaps For Women With Braided Design And Zipper - Xelement B7556 - Size 14 by Tim Crowder

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Size Chart works for hip/thigh measurements but not for skinny calves.

Belt and thigh fit good. Ordered the 20 since it matched my measurements. A little loose.However, since I'm 5'4" with a 36" inseam, I need to trim about 5" off the ends (2 snaps distance+) and I'm going to have to pay a company to take them up from the knee to the ankle bc they're HUGE. I feel like I'm wearing a pair of JNCOs from the 90s. I also need about an 1" taken up at the front seam by the waist since I have a long-torso. The thigh part falls down too low on me and creates an uncomfortable fit with the waistband.I'm a pear shape and had to go bigger for my hips/thighs. If you have larger calves, these probably work great for you. I don't. I wear a size 6 shoe and have tiny ankles.If the alterations place can't make the adjustment in an affordable range (less than $100), I'm just going to have to return these.For $200 I could get a custom pair.Material and workmanship is great- that's why 3 stars. The fit is not so great.

Pros
  • Was a little nervous..I've got them hips! Good fit. Good look.
Cons
  • They may be too bulky or heavy to wear comfortably
