Finally breeches that fit me!
I bought the white breeches to wear in a dressage show in, and I'm in love with them! It's nice to have breeches that actually fit me, and the material feels high quality and were comfortable even in the high heat. Highly recommend if you are a curvy shape.

Good fit, terrible belt loops
Bought these in two sizes since I'm in between with the regular hadley full seats - and I'd definitely go with the smaller of the two (if I were keeping them). Between the grip seat and what feels like a little extra seat in the hips, it is more "curve friendly". The big downside is the sub-divided belt loops. The larger of the two is lower so it sits below the waist (not as flattering or as functional since it's not the smallest point of the body) and you have to fight to fit a normal-sized belt in, especially if you use a silicone back belt (like the unbelt). It's not just a SmartPak feature, I've seen it (and disliked it) with other brands as well. The fabric seems similar if not the same as the non-curvy fit so that's nice and the silicone seat seems sufficient if you like that style. The legs did seem a bit longer than the regular hadleys, it may be a feature of not having the stability of the suede seat allowing more vertical stretch? If you want more hip room and are fine with a thin belt, I'd recommend them - if one of those two is not true then I wouldn't.

Very impressed!
I was hesitant to order these, as I find buying breeches to be extremely frustrating! After trying several other breeches with no luck, I placed an order. The first pair was too large, even after sizing down one size from the size chart. So, back to SmartPak they went (thanks for the free return shipping!) and a new pair was ordered, TWO sizes smaller than the size chart indicated I should wear. The new pair fit beautifully- waist is perfect, rise is perfect, length is perfect. They're grippy enough, but not too sticky... and my phone is a bulky case fits in the front pocket sideways! I have machine washed in cold water and hung to dry, and am thrilled with these breeches, especially at this price point. I've ordered an additional pair, and will get more when all colors are restocked. Don't change these, SmartPak!

New favorite!
Love these breeches! I wore the white ones to a show and alternated between these and my favorite pair of Romfhs which are very similar but these are just slightly stretchier. Great flattering high-rise and I somehow didn't overheat in the Texas heat with them on. I'd love to see them in more colors like purple!

Nice Fit, Great Price
I decided to try the Hadley curvy fit breeches as an alternative to my more expensive pairs. I was pleasantly surprised. The fit is very nice as is the material. The legs are a little long (I am short) which creates some bunching but on the horse they were fine. Very Comfortable. I will be buying these breeches again in the other colors.

New Favorite Breeches
I love these breeches. They are definitely my new favorite breeches and they come in show tan! I typically wear a 38R and they fit great and true to size. The only thing that is a little weird, is the ankle is a little big, but its no big deal (but smartpak if you change anything only touch the ankles!) I have no complaints and have slowly been buying more and more. They don't stretch out throughout the day but they have great movement and fit like they were custom made for me! If you're on the fence, I highly recommend.

Finally, breeches for real plus size riders!
I actually giggled when I put these on. Finally a pair of breeches cut for a plus size rider. I have always had to default to tights style breeches but always wanted a pair of breeches to zip and button up. Well done SmartPak, I will be ordering more!

Almost a Perfect Fit, White too See-Through
I bought my usual Hadley size in both the Shadow and White colors of the new Curvy Fit breeches. I kept the Shadow color and after a ride or two, definitely love their fit and fabric. I could have sized down in these with the extra room in the butt/hips, as the waist is gappy now. I sent the White breeches back bc they were quite thin and see-through even with a Spanx underneath, not okay for showing. Will plan to buy a size down in other colors for schooling! Thanks Smart Pak for considering other body sizes!

I Love These
I never can find breeches to fit me. I usually have to stick with tights to get a comfortable fit. These fit great and a flattering. I also love the sticky silicone seat.

Curvy Fit FTW
I have been a LOYAL Buckwild white breech rider for years and haven't found any other brand that has the "curvy fit". I was skeptical of these because I hate the way the Piper's fit but these are a total game changer. I think I have found my new go-to show breeches!
