    *shrug* That's what everybody calls them in military surplus circles. I tried looking for them under every other name I could think of, but it seems that "leggings" is the recognized term.

    Thanks! I need to drill another hole in it, a little lower than the existing one, and move the leather thong down to a reasonable height. I also need to put a metal spiked tip on the bottom somehow. The rocks around here will tear it up pretty darn quick if I don't.
