Fleece-Lined Full Seat Breeches

Dapplebay builds the Winter Sport Full Seat Breeches from a softshell fabric with a soft fleece lining, on the same fit as its Sport Breeches, with a mid-rise, a core compression panel and the DB quilt silicone full seat.

The Equinavia Astrid Winter is mid-weight and water- and dirt-repellent, with micromesh lower legs that sit smoothly under tall boots, and the Mila Winter uses a thermal bonded fabric with a brushed interior and a mid-to-high rise. Horseware's Flexfit Winter adds a brushed lining and four pockets, and the TuffRider Macy Winter has a faux fleece lining and a horseshoe-print silicone seat.

Winter Riding Pants and Waterproof Trousers

The Horze Cheyenne Padded Winter Riding Pants have side slits with press buttons, elastic straps to keep them in place, a suede-like full seat and reflective piping. Horseware's Padded Liner Trousers are a ski-style, fleece-lined softshell with padding where you need it and side zips at the hem for boots. They're unisex, so men should size up.

LeMieux makes two Stormwear styles. The Stormwear Waterproof Trousers add silicone knee grips, adjustable boot straps and reflective zipped pockets, and the Stormwear Stretch Waterproof Trousers are a softshell with lower-leg silicone grip and cargo pockets for barn work and riding. The Chestnut Bay Rainy Day Pant is fully seam-sealed and mesh-lined, with side leg zips so you can pull it on without taking off your boots.

For the deepest cold, the Horze Annica Overall is padded, waterproof and windproof, with a silicone full seat, a removable hood and snow locks at the ankles. The Mountain Horse Polar Breeches are a seam-sealed coverall-style breech with full-length side zips, and the Kerrits Sit Tight Wind Pro Bootcut Tights fit over winter boots for trail rides.

Cold weather doesn't have to cut your riding short. The right winter pair keeps you comfortable through a whole ride and a long barn day: fleece and brushed linings hold warmth next to your skin, softshell and thermal outers block the wind and shed hay and horsehair, and silicone full seats and knee patches give you the same grip you count on the rest of the year. On the coldest, wettest days, padded and waterproof riding pants keep you warm and dry from the barn aisle to the saddle.

Because a winter pair fits like the same brand's regular breeches, there's no guesswork: start with the size you already wear, then check the brand's size chart. Tack of the Day brings you premium brands for less, with winter styles for women and kids from Shires Aubrion, Dapplebay, Horze, Equinavia, Horseware, Kerrits, TuffRider, LeMieux, Mountain Horse, Romfh, Irideon, FITS, B Vertigo and Equine Couture.

Shop every style in Breeches & Tights, read the Breeches Guide, and keep your feet warm with our Winter Riding Boots guide.
