Crucial Information On Ridding Breeches

By Marissa Velazquez


It is intrinsic to every rider that if you really want to enjoy horseback riding you must get yourself the right equipments. When wearing the right clothing you will be in a position to effectively compete in specific shows, events or races. A good pair of riding breeches (britches) is one of the most essential to effective riding.

Britches are usually designed to fit tightly and at the same time discourage rubbing during back horse riding activity. These riding britches stretch so as to allow extensive freedom of movement which gives the riders more comfort while horseback riding. With all the comfort, the rider can concentrate and focus on riding rather than chafing, pinching and sliding on the saddle. He or she can be able to ride on any style.

As indicated earlier, there are four major types of breeches; knee-patch britches have a leather patch on the side of the knee and goes well with long boots. They can also be worn with half chaps or paddock boots, full seat britches has gripping material that runs throughout the breech and they offer the rider enhanced protection more as compared to knee-patch breech. Jodhpur britches end at the ankle with a short cuff. They are normally worn by children for casual riding and also for lessons. Jockey britches are usually lightweight and are designed purposely for racing.

If you are keen enough you will realize that most breeches are skin-tight and also made of a blend of materials. Spandex, leather and cotton are some of the most common materials used in the making of breeches. It is core for every rider to get a breech that is well fitting and of ideal material that suits individual needs. Riders should take note on learning about riding breeches so that they can be well informed during shopping.

In other cases, horse riding britches are designed to keep the riders worm especially during winter by providing thermal protection. They come in different sizes according to waist sizes. The measuring units are inches. They are also available in regular and long which connotes to in-seam length. Britches normally stretch but they do vertically thus can allow maneuverability lengthwise but they can be snug for small sizes because they do not stretch horizontally.

Knee patches are very useful especially for those who find out that your jodhpurs are getting worn out around the knees. Knee must be flexible while riding to enhance flexibility. It is therefore advisable to buy breeches or jodhpurs with knee pads sewn in. Some designers use the same fabric with the rest of the jodhpurs or breeches to make knee pads while others make knee pads from other materials like suede or any other suitable fabric.

English riding activities are the ones that normally use britches but also many western riders wear and enjoy the good feel of riding britches. They prefer these britches rather than jeans that normally rub against your skin while horseback riding and this can be very uncomfortable.

In conclusion, whether you are riding for competition or for fun, it is important to look decent and more so feel comfortable. Great pair of breeches will not only give riders fantastic look but also enhances freedom of movement that not any clothing can give.
