Vintage Half Chaps by R. S. Giles Montana and 31 similar items

Vintage half chaps - perfect for a day of riding herd and going through brush. These half chaps have a single buckled strap that fits just above the knee, made of a good quality suede leather in a beautiful russet color. These half chaps were hand made by R. S. Giles of Virginia City, Montana. We believe these were made in the 1930s but we have not been able to verify. The yoke is hand tooled and stamped with the same tooling on the bottom patch that includes Giles' maker's mark. Brass dots line the bottom and and halfway up the side in addition to around the bottom leather patch. These are a rare find. While they have been used, we would say that use was minimal. This item was in storage. It may have a slightly musty smell or have some small blemishes or dust that don't affect the use or effectiveness of the item. We try to show any blemish or defect as best as possible. Due to rising and fast changing shipping charges that vary across the shipping location, we reserve the right to change shipping carriers if pricing is inconsistent with shipping charges.
