"I just got these breeches in white, size 24. They fit great! They are my show breeches so I haven't gotten a chance to ride in them yet but I can already tell I am going to love them in the saddle. They are thick enough and of high quality to know that they are going to be very durable.. The only thing I am not quite a fan of though is I do like to wear the FITS Wunderbreech under show pants and because of this you can faintly tell where the pockets in the breech end, but with bare legs under it is just fine and even in my situation my show coat covers it just fine and you'd never know. They are a great rise too. I am not a fan of low rise at all, When I first put them on I was regretting not trying to find a high rise breech but as soon as I put my belt on it completely eliminated the problem! (I should't be riding without a belt anyways!) This is a no brainer pair of breeches for the serious equestrian, I was a little anxious about how expensive they were but they are totally worth it!!"

"I ignored the other reviews, and wish I had not. These breeches run very small. I ordered a size up and they were still snug (my pair is going back and not to be replaced, but in hindsight I would recommend +2 sizes up). They also run short, with the slightly low rise, and the too small calf, it's hard to say exactly what the problem is; these breeches are just weirdly proportioned. I am 5'7" and 125lbs, and tried a size 30. I am keeping the Ariat Heritage Front Zip Euro that I ordered at the same time in the same size - they fit better than these (although still not exceptional...c'mon Ariat! You used to be a brand I trusted)."

"I love Ariat products! But unfortunately these breeches did not work out for me. Like most breeches, they run small; these really seemed to run very small, especially in the calf area. I returned the first size I bought for the next size up, and the next pair I received fit better, but they were still too small. I would have returned them for a second time, but I was in a time crunch and decided to purchase another brand elsewhere."

"These breeches are super flattering. They fit me great in the waist and the rise is just right on me - I'm 5'4" and like them to hit on my hip bones - and they do. They also fit great in the thigh. So far, so good, right?
Unfortunately, these breeches are strangely tight in the knee. And of all of my body parts I may not be happy with, my knees were never one of them. I really wanted to buy these, but I just felt like they wouldn't be comfortable in the knee.
(I had the same issue with the new Tredstep breeches, so maybe I do have big knees...)"

"I wanted to love these breeches so badly that I exchanged them twice. I am now at two sizes above my normal size and they are still bordering uncomfortably snug. The stitching on the full seat is coming out in a few places. I love the way the material looks and feels BUT if you work at a barn (not just ride but clean stalls, groom, etc...) they attract dirt and dust like crazy. After 20 minutes at the barn they are very dirty. I wish I could say I love these, but they just aren't right for me!"

"I have bought many breeches from Ariat and for some reason, Ariat has decided to change the "fit". I'm 5'3" size 6 and a I could barley get a 30R (my previous Ariat size) over my thighs! and I have even lost so weight. I was extremely disappointed! Sent these breeches right back!"

"I love these breeches. I bought a pair as my show breeches, and ended up asking for a second pair for Christmas to use as schooling breeches. I wanted a pair of breeches that would help me stick to the saddle, and these breeches are super grippy! If you have a spooky horse who likes to do the side step unexpectedly, you need these breeches. I bought them in white and they are not see-through. They fit well when I first put them on, but by the end of the day if I wasn't wearing a belt I would be pulling them up. They don't bunch up at the knee and are comfortable under my tall boots. Recommended."

"I received these as a Christmas and loved there look and quality. My mom did purchase them two sizes too big, good thing though as they still fit good. My only complaint is they are a little tight in the knee area and I am constantly pulling them up after walking around in them."

"I bought these breeches for a show recently and I just love them. They are pretty opaque, which is good with a white breech, and they fit snugly, not baggy. They look very nice on. The faux suede seat is high quality. But what I really love about these is that there is no velcro around the ankles. it is just s smooth, stretchy material, which sits nicely under tall boots. Highly recommend."

"How does Ariat provide such a terrific product at a fraction of the competitors prices. These have a nice fit, not too low but low enough to have the updated look but very flattering. Despite the black shoe polish I accidentally smeared on them by crossing a newly polished boot, a little spray & wash and biz rendered them perfectly spotless. The lower legs are snug producing no wrinkles when tucked into the boots. Really nice."

"I am a fan of Tailored Sportsman. After trying their full seat and sending them back (hated the fit), I decided to try these due to the wonderful price and the slash pocket style. The fit is great. They last a good, hard show season of rated shows. Would definitely recommend."
