jodhpurs definition and meaning

What are "jodhpurs"?

Jodhpurs are a type of pants originally designed for horseback riding that became a popular fashion trend in the 1920s and 1930s. They are tight-fitting from the waist to the knee, where they flare out to allow for freedom of movement and accommodate tall riding boots. Jodhpurs typically have a reinforced seat and inner leg for added durability and grip while riding. Today, they are still used as equestrian attire but have also been adapted for casual wear and even high fashion.

Examples
1The characteristic of Jodhpurs is the buckle and it goes around.
