I have been corrected, many a time, that ALL chaps are, indeed, assless.

Otherwise, they'd be pants.

Just sayin' ;)

You have a point there.
However, it should be noted that chaps are meant to be worn over pants, not in place of them...

Thank you. Always thought the term assless chaps to be irritatingly redundant.
