I just picked up a set of Thinsulate lined jeans from Bass Pro shop. I just throw my work jeans in the bags and change when I get to work. Nice warm and cozy! I don't like the added weight of the leather chaps

I got mine from TRD Leather. They're located in Cleveland, OH.
They also travel to lots of shows.
Their leather is top quality cow. Thick and buttery soft.
Also made in USA by real craftsmen.

Check Ebay, I found a set of older HD chaps that are made in the USA for $75. They still had the tags on them.

I got mine at Rural King and they are lined, paid about $65-70. They are a tad long ( I have short legs) but can be cut to fit and look like the high dollar ones.

I bought a pair from Fox Creek Leather for my wife and liked them so much I bought myself a pair. The best thing about them is you order them to fit instead of just buying a "medium" or "large" from somebody else. Got a pair of insulated deer skin gloves from them I like, too.

I picked up a cheap pair from a local leather shop. Looked good and zippers worked great but the leather was so hard it marked my paint. Bought a pair from Fox Creek, much thicker and softer leather, no more marking my paint.
