Favorite Breeches
The Hadley High-Rise Breeches are the best fitting and most flattering riding pants I own! I am a size 26R, 5’3” and they sit right above my belly button. The fabric is absolutely amazing. They are so comfortable when in the saddle with great 4-way stretch. Hair and dust also brushes right off which is a HUGE plus! I love the real back pockets which can be hard to find. This is a great feature to me as I often ride by myself and like to be able to carry my cellphone on me. The belt loops are also the perfect width – my belts are usually about 1 ½” wide. I wash with a regular cycle on cold and hang dry and they have held their shape and color great!

They're Eh
I've been wearing pipers for a while in 28L so I decided to try Hadley's 28L. Overall they fit pretty decently but way way way too tight at the knees to the point it hurt to wear so sadly returning and just not interested in testing out other sizes. The fabric that they're made out of feels a little irritable on the skin but not bad. They looked amazing but sadly just didn't feel good.

Love the britches
Really nice britches. The fit was good, and the fabric is terrific. It seems like horse hair doesn’t stick to it!!

Fit, quality and POCKETS
I bought one pair of these to try about 18 months ago. I subsequently bought two more pairs. They fit great, they wash well and they have a nice deep front and back pockets. Sometimes I ride by myself and like to have my cell phone on me in case of emergency and my cell phone fits into the back pocket with no fear of it falling out. I wash them inside out in the machine on a delicate cold cycle and I hang them to dry, they look like they just came out of the package with no fading and NO COLOR TRANSFER to the inside of my tall boots. Some times they get a little dirty/dusty as I tack up most times I can wipe them clean with my hand, very rarely I grab a damp cloth and swipe it over the crud and I look clean and tidy hopping on. My original pair was a 30R (I'm 5' 5") I ordered my second pair in a 30L and I do like the Long better as it comes down to just above my ankles and that happens to be my preference. They are true high rise (some brands I've tried claim to be high rise and were mid rise at best) and very flattering. I get compliments on them all the time. I love that they have an actual sewn on full seat and not a silicone seat as I am allergic to Silicone (found that out the hard way) and need the more traditional style. I am back today to buy 2 more pairs, not b/c the others have any wear type marks, but b/c I just retired for the second time and I'm riding 5-6 times a week. I tend to rifle through my riding pants drawer to find these breeches over all the other brands and cuts I own so I'm biting the bullet and buying more of these to always have clean pairs available. They are my absolute favorite and 3 pairs isn't enough with how often I'm riding.

Fit and fabric are fantastic, wish they gripped!
Let me begin by raving about the quality of these breeches. I'm so happy to have found a proper high-rise breech at a reasonable price point (SmartPak always killing it in the affordability game). I love the fabric of my (many years old) Tredstep breeches because they seem to be stain-proof and was hoping to find a pair of white that were high-rise in a similar fabric. These seem to fit the bill! I appreciate the wide, comfortable waistband. My only complaint is that the full-seat material does not offer any sort of grip. Please make this style with a silicone seat and I will buy more in a heartbeat! They are TTS- I am a 28 jean (and 28 in Tredstep, Ariat) and ordered these in both 28R and 30R (because we all know how some breeches can really do a number on your self-esteem) and the 28R fit comfortably.

Finally- Comfortable High-Rise Full Seat Breech!
As a "senior" rider, I was never comfortable in the mid-rise breeches that have been so popular. I like my belt to be at my natural waistline and that is where these Hadley breeches place it. I am petite and the regular length is fine for my 5'2" height. I also like the solid colors without the contrasting color trim. I think this gives a more flattering silhouette with a longer looking leg. Plus they are comfortable since the belt does not dig in to the abdomen. For winter riding, the fabric on the ones I have could be warmer, but there is ample room underneath for long underwear. All in all, I am very pleased to find these at SmartPak.

I would love to leave a great review. These breeches fit really well and are really comfortable. But after having them less than a year (and I only wore them every 2 weeks or so) the seat disintegrated.

Love, love, love these breeches!
Love, love, love these breeches! These are my first pair of Hadley's and I am obsessed! The fabric has the perfect amount of stretch and flexibility. The added stain and water resistant properties make these the perfect option for schooling or showing. They are my preferred high-waist style and the waistband is a nice thickness to add a belt. I wear a 28R and I love the comfortable fit. Highly recommend! Can't wait to purchase in additional colors!
