Our Great Basin Chinks are a cross between our BuckarooGear Chinks and the Popular BuckarooGear Armitas. Made with a unique narrow and non-restricting belt top style and extra long square cut fringe patterned from our Armita styling, these Great Basin chinks offer the best of both worlds.
Our chinks are made with your choice of color in glovey soft cow hide. The glovey soft cow hide is essential upholstery hide and widely prefered because it is comfortable and form fitting.

Options
Fit
We believe that fringe should extend to just short of the top of your boot, we use the out-seam (length) measurement to achieve this. If you would like your fringe to fall shorter on your leg please provide us with a shorter out-seam measurement.
Tooling/Stamping & Strap Leather
Only the best is used on the tooled belt tops, leg plates and back belts. 10/12 oz. American Tanned Skirting Leather is the #1 Choice.
Chap Leather
For warmer climates most prefer the lighter weight glove soft hide. Weight may vary between 3.5 to 4.5oz. For those in colder climates we can get heavier weighted leather with the same glovey feel, this leather falls in the 5 – 6oz. weight range. Please Specify Below.
Colors
Generally we build most of our chinks in traditional colors, such as Butter/Tan, Chocolate (Dark Brown), Cream, Tobacco (Brown/Clay).
