What were your first impressions? “When I first put the breeches on, I thought they were really good quality. They weren’t see through at all without being too thick.”
How was the sizing & fit? “The breeches fit true to size and the big waistband made sure the breeches stayed up and allowed for a nice sparkly belt to be worn. The waistband is slightly shaped so when wearing without a jacket the breeches gave a more flattering look. The leg was an ideal length as there was no rouching of the fabric in my boots.
How did you test the product? “I tested the breeches over a three-day show. I was jumping first thing in the morning and then again at about 7pm meaning I had to have them on all day. The breeches have a nice amount of stretch in them so I was comfy sat around in them rather than changing back into tights which I often do. The full grip on the breeches made sure I was very secure in the seat and didn’t slide in the saddle when I had any sticky moments. The weather varied all weekend and when it was warm I was’nt too hot as the material is very breathable but as the material is also water repellent, when we had a shower I stayed dry meaning the breeches are ideal for all seasons.”
What was your favourite feature? “My favourite feature of the breeches was how stylish they looked and them not being see through! The little extra details such as crystals and the shape made them look much smarter than other plain white breeches I own. Even the full grip seat is nice and sticky without the pattern really sticking out and ruining a smart competition look. I had lots of compliments over the 3 days about the breeches especially when the crystals sparkled.”
Any other comments? “Overall, these breeches are extremely comfortable and practical whilst being stylish and standing out when in the ring.”
