Best Answer

half chaps do up at the side, gaiters do up at the back. Gaiters are normally leather, Chaps are sometimes leather, sometimes other materials, such as suade. Gaiters are used to create the effect of the traditional long boots, but only if matched in colour to your jodpur boots. Chaps are normally just used for everyday riding, to protect your legs.

Should i get leather half chaps or suede half chaps?

Either but I would choose leather! If you are just beginning riding then I would go with the suede because they are a little bit cheaper, but if you are a more advanced hunter/jumper then you should definitely invest in the leather ones!
