On the eternal quest for good breeches that don't break the bank...

I had some that I liked, but found that the fullseats seams chaffed the tops of my kneecaps of all things...

Bought some last week. LOVE them. Not full seats, and they weren't cheap ($100 each. USD, ouch). BUT OMG I could wear them daily for the rest of my life. Durable fabric with a good feel to it, not easily snagged, keep their shape (rode in the same pair, longish rides, three days in a row without laundering). Wide, comfy waistband. I LOVE them.

I used to have some corduroy ones with knee patches. LOVED them! So comfy. They held up a few years for me, which would be like lasting ten years for a normal person (I'm a breeches and paddock boots abuser :lol:). I wish I could find the style now!

I have fullseats. I agree the knees are a little funky but overall great durability and rideabilty.

The pair I tried ran ridiculously small, as in I couldn't even zip them up in my normal size. Also seemed to run long. I'm saving them for my daughter to grow into them, I figure the size 26 will fit her when she is 9-10, or possibly 8.

really? I bought my normal size, they ran true. Maybe you got a mislabeled pr?

I have some of their tights, and I really like them. They actually stay up on me too! I did find that they ran a bit small as well. They seem very very durable (haven't worn them a whole lot yet).
They are a bit toasty in the summer down here though. Of course, everything is hot in the summer here.

I have a pair of courderoy knee patch and loff them -- I found them at a tent sale several years ago -- Haven't seen them since -- Would gladly add a few more pair to my wardrobe --

I have the corduroy with the full seat. I like them because the full seat goes to the bottom instead of stopping at the knees. I bought them cheap on ebay from Equiteric a couple of years ago. I like them.

I have a pair that I've had for over a year and haven't killed yet, which is a small miracle for me. They are full seats. I think they are comfy enough. I felt like the ran a little large, but they were a present and I was given the next size up from my normal size. Still seemed large to me, or maybe (hopefully) I'm running small. Haha. I'd get another pair though. I didn't have any problems with them rubbing.

I love their corduroy breeches for the winter! So soft and cozy.
