Short Tailored Sportsman’s?

I tried them on Saturday - they are LOVELY.

I’ll second the idea of trying kids’ larger sizes. I’m short (5’1") and when I was a bit thinner, I had kids XL riding tops and a protective vest. Could not do kids’ breeches because I “have a very low center of gravity” to put it politely, AKA big hips and butt. Yet somehow kids’ top half stuff accommodated my then 34D bust.

As a side note: I’m losing weight, gone the GLP-1 route, down 15 pounds and would like at least another 10 off. This would put me at 135, which probably sounds really heavy, but I’m built like a Cob and am positively bony at 125. But I won’t fit in kids’ sizes even if I get there. Believe them about muscle loss!

You definitely don’t sound heavy, I’m 145 at just under 5’2, most of which is carried in my thighs (seems genetic since the same has gone for my mother) lol

I think we’re built very similarly then. Being heavy below the waist does help me stay on when a horse gets silly… In my case, it’s from my dad’s side of the family. My mom wasn’t that tall (5’5") but she had lanky arms and legs, and narrow hips.
