What are the best full-seat breeches/jods for improving stickability?

My sister (honestly!) is having trouble with being jumped out of the saddle by her share horse. She is small, it is a big horse, and it over jumps a lot. Any suggestions for jods/breeches (or even boots) that would help?*


*until all the gridwork and schooling exercises take effect...
 
I think that the proper full synthetic seats are far better than what they call sticky bums! The sort you would find on most of the german breeches. The nice thing with them is that you can find a make and style that feel most comfortable as there are such a wide choice. They arent the cheapest but they do last. With regard to footwear, i find suede half chaps give a little more grip than leather boots. Failing that, superglue or a seat belt!
 
Would highly recommend any from Cavaletti. Seriously sticky seated jods and breeches and good quality too.
 
If you can bear to wait a while for delivery from the USA....Kerritts Sit Tites, I defy anyone to even move in the saddle let alone leave it wearing these!

Ditto Spans. Also, normally sticky bums, some strange German spray in an orange can that I think is called Sit-Tite, and a suede seat are a good combo.

Beware the squeaking though

I recommend Caldene Dakota breeches. They are so sticky that whenever I sit on a plastic chair, I can't leave it again in a hurry!! Same with in the saddle.

I got mine through Country Supplies.com in their sale which always has loads of stuff going cheap or cheaper!!!
