Look for breeches that have good stretch.

In order to find the perfect pair of riding breeches, you will need to consider the material. The material should be stretchy and soft in order to form around your body and allow for movement. It should also be durable because riding often means that your breeches will be worn out from use. A good material would be a cotton/spandex blend (cotton is breathable and spandex gives the pants their elasticity).

Find a flattering, comfortable waistband.

When shopping for riding breeches, look for a waistband that doesn’t pinch or bind. A wide waistband will help to slim your silhouette and most riders prefer a mid-rise waist because it offers the best coverage. If you have a small torso, opt for a low-rise; if you have a larger build, try a higher rise as it will give support where needed.

Lululemon and Kastel sells breeches with built-in ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) 50.

Lululemon and Kastel sells breeches with built-in ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) 50+. This means that only 1/50th of the sun’s UV radiation can penetrate the fabric, making it suitable for use in the most extreme conditions.

What does this mean for you? It means that you no longer need to worry about getting sunburnt while riding. A skin cancer patient herself, founder Laura Sarey decided that there needed to be an alternative option for riders who had been unable to find safe riding apparel on the market. And so she created her own line of breeches made from fabrics designed by textile engineers who are experts in UPF 50+ technology!

Most riding breeches are designed to be “no show” under your tall boots.

Most riding breeches are designed to be “no show” under your tall boots. But, this doesn’t mean that you can’t find a pair of tall boots that will work with them. It just means that you’ll need a smaller calf size than the average boot. If you do have wider calves or larger feet, be sure to check the clearance at the front of the boot before ordering.

You can find affordable breeches online or offline, but the best deals tend to be on the Internet.

Shopping for breeches isn’t as simple as just looking at the price tag. There are many factors that go into determining whether or not you’re getting a good deal on your pair of riding breeches, and they can vary depending on the type of riding you do and where you live. If it’s your first time shopping for riding gear, here are some tips to help get started:

• Buy at the end of a season. The end-of-season clearance sales provide some of the best deals in all types of retail—not just horse clothes! You’ll often find great prices on winter gear after everyone else has had their fun with it all summer long, but don’t wait too long before buying into an end-of-season sale lest someone beat you to it!
• Look for coupons and special offers. Just like with anything else these days, there are often special offers available when shopping online that give discounts off products (or free shipping) if certain conditions are met. These deals change all the time so keep an eye out for them!
• Look for free returns/exchanges policy when ordering from an online store where possible (and read return policies carefully). This way if there is something wrong with what was shipped then either party doesn’t get stuck with something unusable

Breeches should combine comfort, stretch, and function.

A good pair of breeches is an investment, but it’s not one that has to be daunting or expensive. In fact, you can find some great riding breeches at any budget point—and some excellent ones for as little as $100. But no matter what your price range, it’s important that your riding breeches be comfortable, stretchy and functional.

Here are five tips for shopping for riding breeches:

• Comfort: Make sure the fabric feels soft and breathable against your skin when you put them on—you should feel like you could wear these all day if need be! You might also want to try them on with long socks or tights underneath before purchasing so that they fit properly under tall boots or knee-length boots (see tip #2 below). If they’re too tight around the waist or crotch area then they won’t feel as comfortable after hours of wear time; plus this may cause chafing which can lead to saddle sores over time if not addressed properly early on during recovery from injury (see tip #3 below).
• Stretch: Look for pants made from a durable yet flexible material such as cotton twill or nylon ponte knit; both offer great stretch characteristics without sacrificing durability under pressure points like knees and thighs where abrasion often occurs during competition.”
