Boots and Breeches

Page 8


During the years that I have been gathering leather, I have met some very fine craftsmen.  Here are four more pairs of breeches from differant shops.

First, from Northbound Leather in Toronto, a pair of breeches with a full flare.  They are really striking looking and are very comfortable in the saddle.  Those are my Ariat riding boots with a laced instep.

This next photo is of some very light weight breeches from Argentina.  I like to wear leather in hot weather, and these are ideal.  They are very flexible, and the white side stripe looks good.  I have on my 20-inch Wesco Boss boots.

Next is a great pair of truly custom fitted breeches made for me by david samuel menkes in New York City.  They are a perfect fit due to his meticulous work.  They are unlined and have a buttoned fly.  Note the correctly placed, sharp flare.  They have a big arse patch, and you may request a picture of that if you are interested.  These are my 18-inch leather lined Wescos.

These are some breeches that get a lot of use these days.  Made for me by Tunstell Leathers in Northampton, Massachusetts, the breeches have a wool flannel lining.  I ride, essentially, all year round, and these breeches are incredibly warm in the cold weather.  How do you like my 18-inch lined, laceup Wesco Jobmasters?
