Are you having to have him stitch them up? Or just cut them off. I work with 
leather and  you just need sharp scissors to cut leather.
 You have to cut them off because you are a "shetland pony" and  they are 
made for "hunters".

 I am sort of a 'crossbred' and sometimes I have to trim some. Some chaps 
run longer or shorter than others.
  Just means you have nice short  canons..........
