Frequently Asked Questions About Riding Breeches and Tights
What do riding breeches do? (Why do riders wear breeches?)
Riders wear breeches to feel comfortable in the saddle. Breeches and tights fit easily under tall boots, prevent chafing and rubbing of the skin, and prevent scratches in the saddle that other pants might cause.
How should riding breeches and tights fit?
Riding breeches and tights should be form-fitting with no baggy or loose fabric. Riders should feel comfortable and mobile with plenty of range of motion to ride. Breeches and tights should fit snugly in the waist. There are several types of cuts for the waist, such as mid-rise or high-waisted. If you are showing, you might consider finding a pair of breeches or tights that let you tuck your show shirt in nicely.
What is the difference between riding breeches, riding tights, and jodhpurs?
The main difference between riding tight and breeches is the fabric type. Riding tights are typically made of lighter-weight fabric or stretchier material than breeches, making them a popular choice for summer riding. Tights are also more likely to be “pull on,” like a pair of leggings. Breeches always have zippers and belt loops and are thicker, which can offer great protection in the saddle from chafing or rubbing.
Children under 12 commonly wear Jodhpurs as they learn to ride. These riding pants are worn with paddock boots and have keepers, or underpasses, that loop underneath boots. Since jodhpurs are bulkier at the bottom, they do not fit as nicely under tall boots as breeches and tights.
What are the best horse-riding breeches and tights?
The best horse-riding breeches and tights are the pairs that make you feel safe and comfortable in the saddle. You will have more fun and concentrate better in the saddle when you are comfortable, helping you to feel your best. Every body is an equestrian body, so wear what feels like YOU!
