Sizing/fit of Kentucky Breeches?

[Tharg]

Anyone with any thoughts please?

Are they suited to curves or better for straight up and down shapes?

Are they generous with sizing or do they come up small. I'm buying off the net so don't have the option to try on first.

Thank you all.

I've heard of Kentucky Jods, but not breeches. Do they look like a flare cut boot trouser? That would be a kentucky jod - they're fab for using with a flat saddle (ie lane fox). If you are ordering from teh US, which is most likely where you'd see these, then you'd need to subtract 2 from your sizes. For example, if I'm a 10 in UK size, I wear a US size 8. The ones I had I wore when I was much younger, so a bit less curvy. But they suit a variety of shapes, but I would say probably better for curves of some description.

But then, if you're not talking about Kentucky Jods, I've just babbled over nothing.

I've got some Kentucky breeches. Really nice fit, I think they are very true to size. I've fairly curvy (see sig pics) amd they fit me nicely. But the ones I have have a faor amount of stretch so would be fairly universal I think.

Sounds good, the ones I'm (very boldly eyeing) are a 28 waist where I would be more of a 30/32. I have the same problem with my hips being bigger than my waist.
