I have an upholstery machine and just a bit of a clue:lol8: not much mind you.
If by chance anyone has an old pair of over the boot style riding pants that are thrashed and ready for the dumpster hold on to them and I 'll pay to ship them so I can get some kind of a pattern.
I have tried a few things out and now I want to try a set of riding pants.
This is kind of a reverse engineering sort of thing and I plan on just making myself something to work due to copy wrights.
Where I'm really lacking is the leather for the heat shield that I need and there is no Tandy leather shop in town here.
And just how and were to place some pockets that will work for riding.
But I am trying to get a feel for knew areas and yes dare I say it the crotch.
I am going for an in the boot inner sleeve like a ski pant that tucks and helps with the water resistance factor. Something comfortable and somewhat water proof and functional.
I'm working with some 500 D Cordura material right now that is very heavy but should work. A bit heavier than what is for sale but easier to dbl. high risk areas.
This is another area of work I need to see and figure out.
