Jodhpur Reviews

Sherwood Forest Bramble Jodhpurs.


I had read a lot of review of these jodhpurs as coming up small so bought the size up and glad i did.

They are a comfy fit and really make you feel good while being practical jodpurs but you do have to keep pulling them back up every now and then.

I bought the brown, I wanted the black with blue trim but they had non in stock at the time at Robinsons Equestrian. I'm 6ft1 and yes they are a little short but not terribly.

After two or three wears they ripped on the  stitching on the top of the right bum pocket which was embarrassing as i had the vet out that day and didn't realize till the end of the day! I've recently sewn them back together and hopefully my stitching will hold! They were originally €35.94 but have been reduced on many sites for the quality and sizing reasons.

I 'd give them 6/10 stars.



Sherwood Forest Ekka Jodhpurs.


These were my first ever pair of sherwood jods, I had two pairs, Between each over they lasted me three years with the occasional repair stitching on the crotch. After a while they get stiff with being in the washing-machine a lot.

I still have one pair but I've lost weight so they are too big for me now so they're my winter jods as they are thicker. They are REALLY half-mast for a 6ft1 girl.

I'm not sure if they are still on the market but I would definitely recommend these if your looking for sturdy jodhpurs that last.

I 'd give them 8/10 stars.



Sherwood Forest Two-Tone Yield Jodhpurs.




These are really comfy  and stretchy jods, not too short really bright and daring. I've only wore them a couple of times they have clicked between the thighs and expect i'll have to stitch the crotch soon as its already wore thin with walking. They suit both summer and winter riding.

I 'd give them 8/10 stars.








Decathlon, Fouganza Schooling Jodhpurs

They were only €14.95 when i bought them,
Now €19.95 in store and online.

Had these for nearly three years now. The fabric hasn't wore or became thin. I wear them for riding, mucking out the fields, gardening, and anything horse related as they're comfy to wear, Light in summer but still warm in winter.

They come halfway up my calfs but suppose that's the joys of being 6ft1
! They're stretchy, Find myself having to stop and pull the legs up often as they keep coming down which gets annoying.I would recommend them if you're short or don't mind them being half-mast.

They have 3/5 star rating on decathlon.fr I'd give them 3/5 stars also.
