At RB Equestrian, we pride ourselves on having a wide variety of different riding legwear. This includes breeches, jodhpurs, riding tights, leggings and now even breggings. With lots of different brands, styles and even colours to choose from, we thought it would be handy to give you a run down on our Top 10 Best Selling Legwear.
Best for the comfort of tights with the look and support of breeches: Woof Hybrid Tight
Bridging the gap between breeches and tights the Hybrid has a traditional zipped fly and fits like a breech. But… with a super technical 4-way stretch fabric that’s as comfortable as a pair of tights. High waistband, belt loops and micro-grip silicone full seat mean these are the tights you need to try if you’re still a breech lover!
Best for summer value: Cameo Core Collection Riding Tights
These lightweight tights come in a great range of colours and are perfect for the warmer weather! We really recommend trying on a pair of these tights, because once they’re on – you won’t want to take them off. The Core Collection Riding Tights give that gym legging feel, but with added knee grip so you are secure whilst horse riding.
Best all-round tights: Legacy Riding Tights
We love the Legacy legwear! They are an affordable brand and really are designed to last. These riding tights come in a few different colours and they’re perfect for everyday riding but smart enough for when you are out with your horse too. With a full silicone seat, a phone pocket and fantastic sweat-wicking properties, the Legacy Riding Tights are the go–to choice for any active rider.
Best LeMieux: LeMieux Naomi Breech
We think the Naomi is the top of crop when it comes to LeMieux legwear. They might not be the most expensive but they’ve made it onto our top 10 list because of how stretchy and supportive they are. The pull-on seamless design of the Naomi’s means that they are incredibly comfortable but non-restrictive. We sometimes wear these breeches just to take the dog for a walk – and they also come in some fab seasonal colours too!
Best for traditionalists: Hy Equestrian Melton Jodhpurs
The Melton Jodhpurs are a true classic. Sometimes you just can’t beat a classic jodhpur! We weren’t surprised when these came up on our top 10 list… they’re affordable, practical and simply one of the most comfortable pairs of riding legwear you will ever put on. With reinforced stitching, these jodhpurs are designed to last.
Best for fashionistas: Holland Cooper Sport Leggings
The Holland Cooper Sport Leggings are a ‘brand-lovers’ dream. With the Holland Cooper logo emblazoned on the side, these leggings look super smart in the saddle. And, not only do they look great, but they are also full of lots of smart technologies, including Compact Fabric Construction. This means that they are really stretchy, squat-proof and not see through!!
Best for standing out in the show ring: Equetech Ultimo show breeches
With a high waist, silicone full seat and elegant detailing these breeches look great in the show ring. Perfect for competing in any discipline, this stunning buttermilk colour looks particularly fabulous with a tweed jacket.
Best luxury tights: Ariat EOS
With a whole host of technical options and lots of gorgeous colours the best-selling Ariat EOS range has had an update for 2024. Choose from pretty prints, cross-over waistbands and breathable fabrics. Whatever you go for we know you’re going to love them!
Best for classic style: Mountain Horse Diana Breeches
A few of our team members LIVE in the Mountain Horse Diana Breeches! They’re an incredibly smart looking breech without a massive price tag – what’s not to love? Available in classic colours, the Diana’s really are a timeless breech.
Best if you’re shorter in the leg: Shires Wessex Knitted Breech
Last, but certainly not least, we have the Wessex Knitted Breech. With a stretchy panel at the bottom of the leg these are our go-to option for shorter riders. And they’re also: affordable; comfortable; and made from a knitted cotton fabric. Perfect if you’ve not been converted to tights. With a contoured seat and self-fabric knee patches, the Wessex breeches are great for everyday riding in the school or for when you fancy a hack.
