Breeches/tights recommendations

I am looking for comfy yet flattering tights to school in and breeches to show in. I basically want yoga riding tights :lol:
I DON’T really have a waist so I don’t want high waisted pants that go up to my boobs and end up with a camel toe. I would like low rise or lower rise with a fat but stretchy waist band. I prefer a waist band with stretch!

What’s out there that fits this criteria? I haven’t shopped for tights and breeches in a while and I imagine I will have to purchase them online as there are no local stores with a large selection.

I have the horsewear riding tights. They are so comfortable and without the knee patches look like active wear that people wear to the store. They even have pockets that fit my phone in them. I wish I had bought more!

I have the Piper tights. Can’t say enough good things about them!

goode rider tights. closest things i’ve found to yoga pants with grip. if you don’t need grip, you could just ride in yoga pants lol. you could always fold over the waist band if it’s too high. ariat and foal also make some nice tights.

I love kerrits especially ones with pockets

The new Ariat Freja tights are lovely and silky soft. Ovation Aerowick are nice as well for the price. I do still like Kerrits quite a bit, too.

I love my pair, but wish I had ordered one size larger. I can fit in my tights, but I look forward to taking them off at night.

Goode Rider makes 2 styles, the regular one has a very very high waist but the other is their bodysculpting tight that’s light and comfy. The Kerrits Icefil tights with grip knees are very nice and silky (my daughter loves them). Are you looking for tights you can show in or a separate breech for that? If you’re looking for one breech/tight for both, the Kerrits Crossover comes in an appropriate tan.

I’m a big fan of the Noble Outfitters tights - they have a nice big pocket, and belt loops so you can dress them up like breeches (while still enjoying the comfort of tights :D)

I ordered a size up. I know what you mean!

Eurostar riding tights are amazing!

Pipers are fab. They just redid them so they have new material that holds up much better.

I prefer the Irideons. Very, very stretchy and comfortable - and the lightly ribbed ones are flattering.

I have 2 pairs of the Horze Kira tights and I loveeeee them.

I wish I loved my Kerrits tights - they are comfy, but after a year of use (in rotation with other breeches, used no more than 2x/week), they look pretty awful. They stain easily, are pilling, and the seams split at the drop of a hat.

If you are in Australia, I am riding in the tights I bought from Coles Supermarket in Ipswich, Qld.

They are $15.00 and a similar color to the Kerrits I bought.

The Noble Outfitters Balance tights are great. Kerrits has the Mobility breech that feels like a tight.

I love the kerrits ice fil ones!

Another vote for the Ariat Freja. They do not have a super high waistband and are very, very comfortable and yet flattering, at least for me.

I also recommend Noble Outfitters tights and Aztec Diamond tights, but I feel that both are high waisted.

I also school in some Under Armour tights that aren’t high waisted and are also super comfortable. It may be worth checking out Academy, if you have one of those stores near you.

These are all great recommendations, I love my Kerrits Ice fil, have two pairs but have worn the black pair into threadbare shreds, the left-hand pocket is full of holes from shoving my phone into it!

I just wish they weren’t 90 bucks :frowning:

So, MY question is which of these recommended tights have pockets? And how big are the pockets? Says the woman with the iPhone 6.
