well, I'm not a guy. But I LOVE Irideons! I have seen guys in my area wear them and they don't look like the girl ones when they are on the guys, even if it may give the appearance on a hanger or in a catalog. Irideons are extremely comfortable (my avatar shows me using them!) and cheap for the quality you get. I wear the schooling tights for everyday use and the breeches for clinics and shows.

I definitely recommend them!

Theyre not cheap though, but are they really worth it? I plan on doing a ton of riding this summer and just want to be comfortable doing it.

If you are willing to shell out a little cash, Karreits are the best! I love my Irentons(or however you spell it) too! They are my two favorite brands of breeches

I love Irideon brand breeches. They're very well made, and I have many customers buy one pair only to come back time and time again to buy more.
My favorite Irideon styles are the Cadence (kind of a light ribbed breech) and the Riding Tight (it's a very thin material; very breathable and great for summer/hot weather riding.)

Like I said, they are cheap for the quality you get.
