Purchase: I have two pairs of these breeches, both in white for dressage shows. I've had them both for five or six years, and don't remember where I got them from. You can order them from Dover Saddlery for $74.90.
Likes: They are some of the more reasonably priced white full-seats breeches available. They look pretty good for shows and are not too see-through. The material is soft and not as hot as that used for some breeches, and they are reasonably comfortable. The Clarino full-seat offers a little more grip than knee-patch breeches. Though for schooling I tend to prefer a leather seat the Clarino is good for the show whites because you can wash them a bit more aggressively than leather to try to keep them clean and stain-free.
Dislikes: I don't like how high the rise is, I prefer lower rise breeches. I would prefer and inset seat to the overlay full-seat of these breeches. And, of course, they are horrible to keep clean but I guess that is true of all white breeches.
Quality: The construction and quality of these breeches is fair for the price.
Summary: If you want a pair of full-seat white show breeches these are not bad for the price and I will continue to use the two pair I already own. However next time I want to buy a pay of show whites I will try to find a pair with a lower rise and an inset seat.
