Zpacks used to offer cuben rain chaps made from the same material as their cuben poncho/groundsheet. They might still make up a pair if someone asked.

Like the previous post said. Joe will make you a pair, he did for me. They were no longer for sale on the web page when I asked.

I swear I have seen them on the Oware site, but cannot find them any longer.

I have a pair of zPacks chaps. To fiddly and hot — more the concept than the product. But his rain skirt is awesome, plus you can find many other uses for it.

I wonder if Ron or Joe would make a shorter pair like we use horseback (we call them "chinks")- would breathe better, would keep a lot of crud off them (vs ankle length) and less likely to tangle in the underbrush

Thanks all. The comment about being clammy gave me pause, however. Maybe a rain skirt is the way to go…..?

Fjällräven makes chaps. They are listed as breathable.
