Natty,I wear the snake chaps and think they are just awesome.Mine are made by Rattlers brand and cover the whole length of my leg.It is adjustable as to length by a strap that buttons to your belt.You can walk right through any briar patch too without them thorns a sticken the tar out of ya.I wore mine hunting in Texas last year and walked right through that prickly pear without being stuck.The only down fall is they are a little warm,but to me were well worth the price about $65.00.You can check em out at HuntSmart.com.
