Recommendations for breeches now Derby House has gone :-(

[soloequestrian]

I've had DH breeches for years. I got a particularly nice pair in their winter sale - the ones with the gel seat, which are really comfy. I was waiting for a few more of the summer version to become available before I bought some, stupidly not thinking why it might be taking them so long. Can anyone recommend any with a similar shape? I did try quite few other brands from their sale but sent them all back because none fitted as well as DH own.

Is it not going to come back? I’d thought/hoped things had gone a bit haywire in the change of ownership but that it was going to return.

I like Kramer breeches - have you had a look at them ?

Looks like Ride-away has gone the same way

Ride Away and Derby House were one and the same company. DH bought out RA a few years ago.

No help at all but I couldn't tell you the last time I wore breeches to ride. Skinny jeans all the way for me. None of these legging things either or tights.

Might be worth trying premier equine? I have some of those and some DH ones, same size for both

Have you tried John Whittaker breeches? When I used to wear DH breeches I also like the JW ones. Now I've been converted to riding tights instead!

I like the PE ones, loads of choice, good colours. Not keen on riding tights myself, prefer a bit more support in the seat area!

Depends if your looking for quality or kicking about ones.

Hope valley have a great range. So do Gs equestrian

My faves are le mieux and imperial riding, but I have all different makes.

Thanks, I will look at all of those. I really hope the DH brand comes back but I seem to have ended up with a couple of pairs of winter breeches and nothing for the summer. Getting a bit hot now!

Shires Chapman breeches. I was struggling to find anything decent that wasn’t going to cost the earth. These are full seat, high waist, incredibly comfy, come in a range of colours. I bought another pair soon after buying my first.

Mine are Bridleway, comfortable and reasonably priced.
