Though every project has its creative rewards, leather craftsman Ken Amen especially enjoys building custom chaps and chinks for work and show. We hope you enjoy the samples below and consider Amen Custom Leather when you're ready for your own pair! You can see available options on leather and silver by visiting Chap Details.

Remember to check out the horse-related using gear and the many other products available as well. If you have questions, feel free to call us at 970.522.3303 or simply email.

Ken has crafted a large variety of chaps for work and show; from ranch chinks to equitation suede chaps to rodeo chaps, for people of all shapes and sizes. He works with high quality leather and the choices in color, style and details are all up to you!

The starting point is to send in your measurements and pick your materials. You can have hair-on details, basket stamping, floral tooling, initials, etc. Pictured below are some of the more common shades of chaps and chinks (remember that color on a computer monitor will not be an exact match of the actual leather or suede)...

Tan

Chocolate

Rust

...but don't let that limit you, because there are many more colors available. Ken has also made several pairs of beautiful chinks out of hair-on hide! Just call or email for more samples.


After you've chosen the color, materials and tooling details of your new chaps or chinks, you can get to the finishing touches. Because he works with reputable silversmiths on a regular basis, Ken is able to offer his customers a wide range of silver choices. Here are just a few samples - again, there are many more available to complete your new chaps:
