The Freejump Chaps America are full-grain leather half chaps for riders who ride in jodhpur boots but still want the leg line and saddle contact of a riding boot. Freejump calls them compatible with the Foxy and K2 boots, they stay in place thanks to the ergonomic cut with two side elastics, and give grip against the saddle flap on the inside of the leg.
About these chaps
The outside is made of full-grain leather, with hides sourced in Portugal. Full-grain is the top, unbuffed layer of the hide: it is the strongest layer, and it moulds to your own calf after a short breaking-in period. The inside of the leg is grained leather. That grain gives more grip against the saddle flap and copes better with the friction that bites hardest in exactly that spot.
You put the chaps on using the rear zip. That zip has a self-locking double closure system which stops it sliding down while you ride. An elastic band runs alongside the zip so the chaps follow your calf, and two elastics on the sides form part of the ergonomic cut. Which make of zip Freejump uses on this model, and in which size, is not stated by the manufacturer.
The real difference from the other Freejump half chaps lies in the boot. The America does not connect to your boot: according to Freejump, the cut and the two side elastics hold the chaps in place without any extra fastening, provided you choose the size that matches your measurements. The Liberty + Chaps work differently, because they attach to the Liberty+ boot with a hook-and-loop fastening. Freejump describes the America as compatible with the Foxy, a women's model in sizes 36 to 41 EU, and with the K2 in sizes 39 to 46 EU. No other combinations are listed by the manufacturer, so we do not assume any.
At Freejump, the sizes S, M, L and XL are not ordinary clothing sizes but calf sizes. S covers a calf circumference of 32.5 to 34.5 cm, M of 34.5 to 36.5 cm, L of 36.5 to 38.5 cm and XL of 38.5 to 40.5 cm. Each calf size also carries a shaft height, and that height shifts with your shoe size: anyone wearing 41 to 46 EU ends up, in the same size, with about one centimetre more height than someone wearing 36 to 40 EU. So measure both before you choose. For the chaps, Freejump gives no rule for anyone who falls between two heights.
Freejump keeps the care of its leather footwear and chaps simple. Dirt and dust come off with a soft, damp cloth, never with a hard brush, which would scratch the leather. Once the leather is clean and dry, you work in a nourishing leather cream. That last step is no detail: leather that is not fed dries out and cracks along the flex lines around the ankle.
