breeches, they were not true jodhpurs and are more accurately termed "flared-hip breeches". This British version was soon being produced by Savile Row tailors in London. The use of the Indian-style, ankle-length Jodhpurs allowed riders to use short, less expensive boots, as their calves were protected by the reinforced design and snug fit. Use Riding 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, sometimes of a hard-wearing material such as leather; and in some cases similar leather or leather-like panel on the seat that helps the rider stay still in the saddle. Classic jodhpurs are beige or white, but for working purposes are now made in a variety of colours. They are particularly well-suited for children, as the shorter paddock boots cost less than tall boots to replace as a child's feet grow.

Breeches are riding pants that come down to about mid-calf, and are designed to be worn with long stockings and tall boots. Jodhpurs are ankle length and are worn with short, ankle-high Jodhpur boots, also known as Paddock Boots. Sometimes knee-length half-chaps or leggings may be added. Occupational uniform Jodhpurs are sometimes worn as fashion or occupational clothing.

Flared-hip breeches and tall boots formed part of the military uniform of army officers in Imperial Germany, the Second Polish Republic, Nazi Germany, and many Eastern Bloc countries, including the former USSR and East Germany,. Jodhpurs, or flared-hip breeches, also were adopted as the uniform for some forces of motorcycle police. The style came to be associated with authority figures in general and was copied by certain Hollywood movie directors in the United States. Early 20th-century African big game hunters are also associated with the look, due in part to early traditions of riding on horseback in search
