Jodhpurs are tight-fitting trousers worn primarily for horse riding. The term can also refer to a type of short boot, or 'jodhpur boot'.
Originally, jodhpurs (as worn in and around the city in India after which they are named) were tight-fitting only from the knee to the ankle and were flared above the knee; modern stretch-fabrics have allowed jodhpurs to be supportive and flexible.
Special adaptations for riding include a pattern cut with the leg seams on the outside of the leg; a patch on the inside of the knee; and often a harder-wearing "sticky" panel on the seat. Traditionally, they are white or cream, but now come in a variety of colours.
The word "jodhpurs" is often used interchangeably with riding breeches, although breeches more strictly are riding trousers that come down to just below the knee. Jodhpurs, along with riding breeches, may be worn with knee-length riding boots, but are more commonly worn with short jodhpur boots, often with knee-length half-chaps or leggings.
