I would suggest that you see if you can find a local saddlemaker in your area, if you are looking for something nice .. Worth a try .

i recommend you try them on. i went thru three different manufacturers before settling on mine.
things such as stretch, cut and all day comfort are important
buying without trying on is a recipe for getting to purchase again.
i ended up buying a cheap, heavy pair at a swap meet. best pair of chaps i own. had for over 20 years, still wear them. regular care and they keep functionality
zippers are important more than name

I'm sure I'll get called out on this but here goes anyway. I'll start by saying I have been riding Harley's for over 40 years. Leathers are worn to protect your hide in a fall, If they do that you got your money out of them. I'm on my second pair of chaps. I bought the first set at a Harley Rendevous many years ago and I still have them. I used them for Riding the bike and horse back riding for years until I out grew them. My friend has the Harley chaps and he paid several hundred bucks for them and he insisted I buy a pair. I went on line and found a pair at http://www.jafrum.com/motorcycle-gear/leather-chaps for around $50.00. I bought them and the first time I wore them my buddy asked how did I like the Harley chaps? When I told him where I got them he said junk. I took them off and compared them to his and guess what they appear identical stitch for stitch. Mine where made in Pakistan he has no clue where his HD chaps where made. If I hit the ground in mine I'll be out $50 bucks and will buy another pair. If he hits the ground well lets just say it will cost him a lot more!
BTW I bought a jacket from them also. Looks just like my friends HD jacket as well. The first time I wore it the zipper on the sleeve broke. I called them and they issued a return and replaced the jacket without question in 3 days time.
