Most may know Denice Langley for her decorative, finely tooled yet functional chaps. These custom-designed chaps have featured mother of pearl, blue spinel conchos, two-tone accent colors, filigree tooling and multiple layers of fringe. Though her chaps are highly embellished, Langley uses 4- to 5-ounce hide that has some body and double-reinforced stitching so that the chaps are durable and hold up to wear.
