Jodhpurs – does anyone wear them in USA or Europe?
I saw another question about jods, but that pic looks like what we on the left side of the Atlantic call breeches. Maybe that was a Brit/Yank communication variance?
What I’ve seen called jodhpurs are not stretchy fabric, and not close-cut to the leg. They have the big baggy hips, a la the old timey US Cavalry. I saw them in use in India, mostly as a rather militaristic equestrian fashion statement. So much of the European influence I saw there would be considered archaic here.
I recall in the late ’70s, the saddleseat crowd wore something similar along with their long coats. I haven’t associated with any saddleseat show people since then (although I’ve had to rehabilitate their mentally fractured horses).
Just curious – I was given a pair, and wondered if there’s any place on this side of the planet that wouldn’t consider them goofy-looking.
Thanks all!
I am British, raised in South Africa and am now in California.
While no one wears those military style breeches anymore (so sad, they would do wonders for hiding my thighs!), people in Europe, Africa and USA wear both Jodhpurs and breeches. Children wear jodhpurs and adults wear both, depending on what boots they are wearing. Jodhpurs are commonly worn with short boots and breeches tall boots. For the most part the cuts are pretty much the same, although as breeches are aimed mostly at women and men not children they can be cut a little more generously.
