Buying & Selling Beginners Advice
We teamed up with equestrian clothing brand Aztec Diamond and sent some of our brand ambassadors some core pieces from the Aztec collection to test and review. We sent Lauren of Hesteyri Horses a pair of Denim Breeches to try out on their busy training yard. Here’s what she thought of them...
First impressions of these were definitely positive! They look ridiculously stylish and were so comfortable the minute I put them on.
I wore these for three full days of work before writing a review. This included washing jumps, moving jumps and jumping jumps! It also involved mucking out, grooming, doing haynets, hacking out and a myriad of other duties involved in the day to day running of a busy schooling yard.
I would definitely recommend these to a friend. They feel just like my favourite pair of jeans to wear, but are much smarter! They are the perfect balance between casual and smart; ideal for wearing to clinics or training, and equally fab for use at home. The detailing is really sophisticated, with just the right amount of bling to draw attention without being garish.
The only niggle I have with these is that, because they are quite low fitting and sit on the hips, I need a belt with them and I didn’t have one which looked nice enough with them, so spent my days pulling them up continuously!
Ease of use:
5/5 – The breeches are perfectly fitting and easy to slip on and off. The fastenings are simple but effective.
Comfort:
5/5 – As I said earlier, these are just like wearing my favourite pair of jeans. They have an elasticated waistband so they don't dig in.
Quality:
5/5 – I wear them for everything without worrying about loose threads, broken fittings or anything similar. Admittedly, I have not worn them for a very long period of time, so their durability might need more testing.
Appearance:
5/5 – If I could give more than five stars here, I would! They are the nicest breeches I have ever seen, let alone owned!
True to size:
5/5 – They fit like a glove so they’re obviously the right size!
I love these Aztec Diamond Denim Breeches! They are certainly up there with the nicest clothing I own, and the next time I end up in town in my riding gear, I definitely won’t be embarrassed! They are coming with me to Hong Kong next month so I can find the perfect belt to go with them.
