jodhpurs

Equestrian leg garments

Jodhpurs are riding pants that fit loosely from the hip to knee and tightly from knee to ankle.

The close fit below the knee allows them to slip easily into boots.

Named after a city in India, they became standard equestrian attire in the West: She pulled on her jodhpurs before heading to the stables.
