found some old breeches laying around at the back of my closet and tried them on… they are comfy but skin tight and don’t know if they are unflattering … honest opinions wanted! you won’t offend me, not a problem for me to sell or throw away, i’d rather not look like a stuffed ham
sorry for messy background
edit to add that obviously these would be for schooling only
They look fine to me.
You do NOT look like stuffed ham. 
I think they look fine and if they are comfortable, that is most important.
they are fine - the front pic is a weird angle that’s distorting the perspective, rear shot looks fine. Too tight too me are the tights you see girls doing “work out” tik toks where the fabric is thin and goes right in their butt crack. I do think the medium grey breeches are one of the nicer options out there.
thanks everyone!!! 
They’re just fine. Nice breeches!
Here’s my criteria. No camel toe? Check ! Not crawling up my butt? Check. Not strangling my thighs ? Check. Breeches should be snug. Plus with riding they’ll stretch. Lovely color!!
Looks good!

They look great!! The fabric does not appear to go “see-through” anywhere, you don’t seem to suffer from any material crawling into crevices best left to breathe, and best of all, you said they are comfy. The final test will be riding in them… are they still comfy and do they stay where they are supposed to? If so, call it a solid WIN!
Haven’t we all had a stuffed ham moment putting on breeches?
Those look like a technical fabric so I think that the close fit is flattering. If they restrict or are uncomfortable, let them go. If appearance is the only pause, rock on. They are a really pretty shade.
I kind of go by if they give me a muffin top around the waist. These do not. They look great.
I think they look great.

Well I’ll be the dissenting voice, so send them to me. 
No, they look fine and if they feel great that’s a double win.
Wait…my breeches aren’t supposed to be tight? I’ve been doing it wrong my whole life then. 
You look fine!
If you can still move freely enough to tack and mount your horse, and the fabric is not stretched so much that one can count the stitching on your underwear, then they are fine.
I had never seen one or even heard of stuffed ham. I had to google it.
you guys are so nice!! thank you so much <3
They look elegant! Love that color.
