"Nice breech with both style and durability. Fabric breaths and fits well. Back pocket will be nice while at shows or clinics. True to size."

"I fit in smartpak's other breeches, size 36 without a problem; in fact they're a little big. These breeches felt like they were 2 sizes smaller. I couldn't even zip them."

"I think that $200 is a bit over-priced for breeches, but these are quite nice. I will not buy them again at this price point, but should they come down closer to $120, that would be a more reasonable price. They are not so amazing as to justify such a high price. I have only worn and washed them twice so far, so I cannot speak to their durability. I do love the darker seat, it is flattering and attractive. The material is not too thick or too thin with just the right amount of stretch. I love the stretchy calves, they fit so much better under boots and don't rub or chafe like other designs. I wear a 28L in most breeches. These are a bit too roomy on me, but I think the 26 would be too tight. The long really isn't very long; they are the same length as some of my regular length breeches. Over all they are a very nice breech, though too expensive."

"When the calendars came out they have coupons on the bottom, one was for these breeches. I decided to try a pair, they were way too small they were uncomfortable and so darn low rise my butt kept popping out. I was horrified. I sent them back and I am keeping to my kingslands. The sad thing is they were such nice looking breeches, but they just did not even come close to fitting. I really wish they would stop making everything low rise not all of us like the waist so low we have to go up two sizes so we can get our rear ends in them! Also for the material and everything they are overpriced"

"Very pretty pants and well made but they did not fit my body type at all. Not enough fabric across the front. I wear a 34R in tailoreds and the 38 regular in these fit everywhere but the crotch area. Gave me that unwanted "camel toe". Anyways these pants are beautiful if they fit you! I wish they fit me!. Smartpak was very good about the size exchanges and free returns!"

"I love these breeches! I especially like the thick waistband. They are low rise breeches and if you have a small waist order a size down. The fabric is really nice. They remind me of the ariat olympia breeches."

"I am in love with the style and fit of these breeches. Wanted to wait for a couple of washes before writing review as some tend to fall apart (Cavallo) but these have held up well, though not as well as the Ariat Olympia. My only wish is that the fabric were a little more stain resistant. Even with spray and wash, brown stain of unknown origin will not come out."

"I love these new breeches. The fit is perfect, the fabric comfortable and stain resistant and the sock like bottoms are very comfortable. My only complaint is the contrasting brown full seat; it is a little too dark and would be prettier if it were a little lighter shade. All in all my new favorite breech! I have not had them long enough to judge durability."

"These breeches are the best I have ever bought. As a previous reviewer said, they will spoil you for any others. Yes, it is the most money I have spent on breeches, but totally worth it, so comfortable and very attractive. I found the fit to be very true, I am generally a 26 long, and they fit perfectly.
I usually wear Goode Rider breeches, and I still love them as well, but the Alexus definitely has them beat, and for not that much more money.
Buy them!

"Great breeches, but be prepared to take advantage of Smart Pak's free return policy because I bought 2 pair and they fit drastically different from each other. Same size different fit. Wonderful customer service made it work out though."

"I tried these on in the store while fitting boots. I wouldn't have looked at them otherwise because they are a bit pricey.
I loved them! The material and construction are very high quality. They fit me perfectly. A 24R fit best though all my other breeches are 26. The rise is at the naval while seated. I thought this might be too high but the breech lays nicely and is fine.
Quality and comfort. You should try them."

"I hate to admit it, but I'm becoming spoiled by nice breeches. Now that I've worn the Alexus breeches, I don't want to ride in anything else! The fabric is amazing. It's smooth and offers brilliant coverage, has the perfect amount of give in the saddle, resists stains and retains it's shape even after a full day of riding and working around the barn. The Titanium color has a gorgeous full seat in navy. The fine stitching details add the perfect touch of sophistication. I personally found them true to size (26), so with a rise on the lower side and a trendy wide waistband, I think they are extremely flattering."

"Ordered these breeches to try them, loved the styling and the material, nice stretch with trim fit but SUPER SMALL. I wear between 28 and 30 depending on the brand. Tried the 30 and it was nowhere near that. Maybe because its European there is some difference in the size numbers Im not used to, but order 1-2 sizes UP!"
