How To Order Leather
ORDERING LEATHER:
Holsters - Please state make, model, and bbl. length of handgun when ordering. (i.e. Ruger Vaquero, 5 1/2" bbl.; or Colt Govt. Model, 5" bbl.). Barrel length is measured from the front of the cylinder to the end of the barrel on revolvers, and from the closed action bolt face to the end of the barrel on automatics. If ever in doubt about the measurement please give us a call or send us an e-mail.
Belts - On all belts we need your actual measurement where the belt will be worn and the cartridge size (.45 LC, .44 Russian, .357, etc). Most cartridge belts are worn just below the pants belt, and shotgun belts across the stomach. Do not use pants size, or measure old belts, for this measurement. Pants sizes are usually 4 to 5 inches smaller then your actual size and old belts stretch after continued use. PLEASE make sure of this measurement. If you give us the wrong one and have to return the belt there will be a 20% restocking fee (no returns allowed on personalized leather).
Chaps - On all chaps/chinks we need the following measurements: Waist (where chaps will be worn, normally just below your pants belt), inseam (top of chap on inside of leg to top of instep; about 4 " below knee on chinks, out seam (top of chap on outside of leg to top of instep on batwing and shotgun; about 4" below knee on chinks), around upper thigh, around knee, around calf. Do not pull tape too tight as this will cause the chaps to be too tight for comfort.
Leather cuffs - Diameter of wrist and arm 6" up from wrist. Always a good idea to measure this wearing a long sleeve shirt.
