I tried on a pair of large chaps this past weekend and couldn't get them closed to zip up on the legs. Went to a pair of XL and got them zipped up although they were snug. I could bend my knees and figured that the leather would stretch a bit over time so I ordered a pair of the XL size (didn't like the style I tried on & it was the only XL pair they had in stock). Did I do right or do you think I should have ordered 2XL? I don't have to take the ones I have coming if they get in and I don't feel comfortable in them.
