Now they finally offer wedge riveted chausses in the USA.... After I payed 60 bucks for shipping for a pair from Germany that are the tie in the back type. My German ones are a smaller ring size than these ones most likely as they're 7-8 MM and not 9MM like these. But they cost me 240 bucks INCLUDING 60 bucks shipping so I did get a deal. Only issue is they're the tie in the back ones and I kinda need some help on how to tie them. I used up all my leather tie so I guess using jute cord would be a better idea and tougher because my leather tie constantly snaps. Any suggestions on how to tie them?

Tie them with slipknots, no matter how wet or tightened the knot becomes from sweat and strain they are easiest to untie.  ;)

ok got them and had to clean them. they are coated in grease like usual.
did a test fit and they fit nicely. man it's gonna be a pain to tie the foot on these lol. i need to put on a pair of wool hose and then put these on and tie them to my arming jacket. then tie the foot. then readjust. i figure i better get to the photo shoot WAY early to get these on. the box said 15 lbs for shipped. so not to bad. had to go with the butted but it doesn't look too bad form 5 ft. i still know WAAAAAAAHHHHH lol.

Yep, now you get to enjoy the 20 minutes of lacing each time you want to use them, like I do. :)

please pray for me as i bought riveted. lol

had to go with the butted

You got butted? I thought riveted??

Are these "stocking" style or open in the back? Enjoy the lacing!

And I suggest taking out that god-awful modern "belt loop" part and putting a leather strip to lace to. :)
