Jodhpurs: The Victorian Answer to Capri Pants || Summertime Historybounding

I loved the Jodhpur history lesson at the start! It was also really interesting to see the difference between jodhpurs and regular breaches/riding breaches - I hadn't realised this before so that was also fascinating. Thanks for the pants-themed historic drafting content, it's both inspiring and educational 🥰👖

COLONIZERBOUNDING! Wow. Yes. This is a word I needed.

These turned out so cute! The fabric has the perfect Flow-y movement. I don’t think anyone will mistake you for being pant-less! I love the crossover flap you created. It turned out perfect. Another project well done. Your Corgi girl is darling.

I LOVE THESE!! I dropped everything I was doing to watch this! I'm currently packing the car and then hoping to sit and film my voice over and intro and outro and I'll be ready to upload my video!

Traditional jodhpurs had an almost semicircular flare from a few inches below the waistband to about halfway down the thigh, where they then closed in to a comfortable but not too roomy fit at the knee. Most were originally made in cavalry twill (very durable) and traditionally in a light beige colour.

I’m definitely team pocket also. The background information you provide in each of your videos is so interesting and adds great dimension to your projects. Thank you for yet another interesting, informative and educational video.

3:55 This man just did exactly what my 19-yo self did, after years of too short trousers (I'm very long) tucked into legwarmers ^^ Now I'm only wearing my jodhpur-like trousers, they're SO COMFY I can't imagine dealing with tight trousers around the bosom or thighs or crotch or knees, and they're SO PRACTICAL I love the tight feeling on the calves <3 They've really become a staple of my visual identity and everyone finds them super cool, I get lots of compliments. Recently I've started making them out of thrifted trousers and it's a joke I tell every time : out of two pairs of trousers, I make one ! Oh and some tips : - take the bulk of the gathers under the knee to the outside of the leg, so you don't get folds chafing when walking (especially if your knees touch like mine) - close the cuffs under the knees by some system that can vary in tightness (I use knots, because I LOVE knots) - on the outside of the cuffs, at the closing, keep a slit up the leg a few cm (make the two joining parts overlap if you don't want a "hole" there) ; when you'll want to pull your trousers over the knee (deeper water or whatnot), you'll thank me ;)

These are so beautiful! Love the summery footage, too 🌄. Also, I am so using "coloniser-bounding". While I don't assume anything about what someone else is going for with which historical pieces they've chosen - outside the most extreme examples, anyway - there are definitely looks I avoid myself because they remind me too much of some seriously terrible things. In the past, I've struggled to express that properly, but you've summed it up perfectly, there ❤️.

I loved Katos clothes, especially the jodphurs, but I could not afford them and during the time I did not sew. Perhaps I should give it a try 10 or so years later. Love your version 😍 Miko says hi to Canelle he loves digging on a sandy beach too.

I nearly spat out my drink at colonizer bounding. There's some song that was popular 15years ago, with the line 'in the Indian subcontinent' and we always used to say it sounds like an empire era explorationist.

I really love that front flap!

I'm sad Camille's video doesn't seem to be available. This is exactly the pant I'm looking for.

Love the modifications and your explanation! The small scale patterning is genius!

These turned out super cute! Just the right amount of poofyness! I'm very excited about the collab too, I'll definitely check out Camille's video for some up-sizing tips! And Canelle is a cute little darling as always!

Great design and the pants look very cute on you! Would also be great for Larp adventuring pants :)

I am definitely going to be trying these out!!! I've got some lightweight olive green wool that's just begging to become something like this! :D Once again Canelle is a little, adorable, show stealer. You need to have words with her about that. ;)

I thought I was going to have to educate you about the real name for your Jodhpurs but I see we read the same information and you do know the difference between real jodhpurs and breeches or wide hip breeches. 👍🏼🙂

What a happy, dirty doggo at the end <3

Wow. I just stumbled apon your channel, and I'm definitely staying! Honestly, you had me at #victoriantomboy. Thanks so so so much for both of this pant-videos! The steampunk ones have also been stalking my pinterest for years :D Now I'm diving into my fabric stash and find out if there's something suitable there to get started right now :)

I've been watching all of your videos since you posted on the ofmd cosplay page, im currently hand stitching and omg thank you for getting me through it
