QOGIRSnake Guard Protection Chaps: Snake Bite Protection for Ankle to Thigh Snake Chaps, Waterproof Snake Gaiters

They were great.

Good quality and easy to put on.

Nice chaps but it would be better if they included a zipper on the boot end.

Here’s why these Chaps are 5 Star in my view. We live in a very wooded area with large and larger lots not far from a wildlife-protected state park with walking and hiking trails, a lake and a dam. The backs of the lots between us and the park are precipitously steep, wooded hillsides and the woods slope down into the back acre of our lot. My husband relishes this because he is not only a lawn guy, but also a ground-cover, undergrowth, briar and wood-cutting enthusiast. He has recently acquired some irresistibly priced toys/tools. These bargains have inspired him to extend his mild obsession within our own property and beyond to grateful neighbors with chainsaw needs, and on his own initiative along the woods bordering our street despite our having a regular municipal chipper crew. To complete this preamble to my review, I need to add that he has on a number of occasions knocked on the window to show me some big writhing snake he’s holding up by its neck, knowing it totally creeps me out. He always says they are harmless, but we do have copperheads and other deadly reptiles in our vicinity. So now you should appreciate why I am giving these chaps 5 stars: I am expecting them to save him from snakes ans thorns. They are the best I have found to give him serious protection. The fabric is sturdy, they are extremely well made, and they should outlast even a much younger (hypothetical) person, but none of that would matter but for the fact, which is amazing to him and to me, that he will actually wear them!!!!! The key to this 5-explanation point miracle seems to be that each hip-high leg is independent of the other. [Note: Chaps might be the origin of why a person is said to wear “pants” or “a pair of pants” for a garment covering two legs separately and the lower torso, but only “a shirt” for a garment covering two arms separately and the upper torso.] These chaps fit comfortably even over baggy jeans, they aren’t too hot even in sweltering weather, and probably the most important, though he’d never say so, is that they don’t make him look like a dork. 🙄

I bought these because I have property and lots of copperheads. The instructions don’t say to wear pants under them. The first time I wore them, people were Puking all around me telling me I should be ashamed of myself. I showed my neighbor the instructions and it didn’t say to wear pants. He realized it was an innocent mistake and told me to wear blue jeans underneath. Now people smile and wave.

The lower legs, at least in the front, are well protected. Theres some sort of plastic inside which should be bite proof but up on your thighs its just canvas, not sure that would stop a bite (it might be I'm not sure.Also, if you have big thighs these probably won't fit.

Protected my legs

Having snake boots and then snake chaps over top of the boots has taken the edge off walking through tall grass and brush. I'm scared of snakes and was spending most of my time slowly walking through the brush being so paranoid it took me forever to get where I was going. Now I put the boots and chaps on and i'm flying through the grass and brush. These have taken the edge completely off of the worrying. Not one briar has stuck to me either. Highly, Highly recommend.
