But, I'm trying real hard to resist the sugars and fats I could eat when younger. Us old folks must cope with SLOWED metabolism :-) I'm a bit confused about size......never having purchased riding pants/breeches. I wear a petite size 12 in regular jeans....and am happily moving towards a loose 12--towards 10 :-) Sure is difficult to lose weight and inches in the so-called golden years <g>. These tights sound great, and I can sure use all the help I can get to stay in the saddle when I ride Paddy (Slettir for those who insist on Icelandic names). Pretty Pila is such a sweetheart, and sooooo brave. She hasn't dumped me and puts up with all my mixed cues and not so great seat--guess us older females can really stick together <g>. The braver she is, the braver I am, and it goes on and on, and transfers to the Padman. I digress......feedback about the tights really appreciated, as Pila has given me courage to ride Paddington/Slettir.
