Mark Todd Breeches

[shelbug]

Hi, Please could anyone tell me if the Mark Todd breeches are any good and also what the sizing is like? I've seen a pair I really like online, I used to be a size 12 but have lost of lot of weight and all my clothes are a size 10 now, but my old Pikeur breeches (size 12) still fit nicely, so am in a pickle over whether to get a 10 or 12! Any help will be appreciated

I don't know about sizing compared to other makes, but I'm quite slim and they fit me really well. I had two pairs and recently out-grew them (grrr) and I desperately want to find the best place to buy them! I had the jeans type ones (very hard-wearing, if a little hot in summer when riding - I used them for work, as a groom) and the checked ones (absolutely lovely!)

I'm looking at the Gisbourne ones this time - just can't justify the extra expense for the lovely checked ones

I'd go for the 10, I find mine are slightly generous in sizing

Thats great, thank you both. I need something hard wearing and for some reason - think its pyschological (SP??!) I always buy sticky bum ones and these look lovely!

They are generous in sizing.

I have two pairs of gisbournes and really like them. I have a lovely olive/chocolate sort of colour (think it's called khaki?) and also navy. I'm not sure I'd say the sizing is generous though! I wear 24R and that's the same as I'd buy in other brands. I'm a UK 8.
