Addtion to the last post.

After I had posted the last blog, I got to thinking that I may have left something out.  One of the things was that with smooth leather or suede chaps you may not want to store them together with a blazer.  My suggestion would be to hang them on a wooden hanger and place in a breathable garment bag alone.  Leather must breath in order to keep from drying out.  Ultrasuede on the other hand is a man-made fabric and doesn't need to breath so to speak, and can have a rail shirt or jacket placed on the shoulder part, and put in a garment bag. 

The other item I forgot, was an idea I came up with yesterday when thinking about how pants and chaps sometimes fall off of hangers and on to the floor in the trailer, the ground or in the garment bag its self.  Well here is a simple solution for that problem.  At a local discount retailer purchase felt furniture protectors. These come in several different sizes so pick small ones.  Your going to peel the paper off of it and place on the cross bar of the hanger. Put them on the top of the space bar and 3-4 of them should be enough to do the trick.  This will keep your chaps and pants in place, clean and slip free.  Happy Trails.
