Jodhpurs

Jodhpurs you say? What's that?

Oh just a style of pants worn primarily by equestrian riders.

The original Jodhpurs had a flare on each hip to allow free movement while riding. Now all jodhpurs are made from stretch material making the bulge unnecessary, also makes finding them to buy or a pattern almost impossible. They were also used as military uniform pants.

Flares on my draft might be a bit big, might take them in a bit. Made them extra high just so there's a good bit of overlap with the jacket.
