I just had my first ride in these breeches. First off, the color is just gorgeous, it’s an icy light blue which is stunning. The breeches are super comfortable, especially in the waist area, I honestly felt as flexible as I do in leggings. However, the grip is not as strong as I was used to with other FG breeches. I felt that in the sitting trot today, I did not have as much grip as usual and moved around in the saddle more. However, some people prefer that feeling and I will probably just need a few more rides to get used to them.
