Original Antique shotgun chaps

Description:
Original shotgun chaps
These nice chaps are from an estate sale. They have beautiful aged patina, on smooth brown leather. They have a great looking basket stamped belt, and classic large patch pockets with snap closures. The leather is very flexible and would be wearable for pictures. The legs have laced leg seam, with thin cut fringe that you often see in old photos. About 3/4 of the original fringe is intact so 1/4 of the fringe is missing.  Absolutely great original use patina.
These chaps are an 1870s style pair from the River Junction private collection. Made of chaparejos leather. Upper sides and fly area re-enforced with a double layer of leather. Has two flap pockets with brass snap buttons to secure them.  All stress points are original re-enforced and intact.
The out-seam is 39 inches to the top edge of the belt, the inseam 28 inches, the waist belt length to the center hole is 35 inches and the overall belt length is 41 inches . I think the belt indicates that this cowboy was a big fellow for that day.  Note that the belt is still complete and has not been added to or shortened. This is a very good pair of chaps for being 125 years old. A wonderful addition to you old west collection or special addition to a Colt or Winchester collection.
