Jodhpuri Pants are an innovation in itself, popularized in the fashion and royal circle by Sir Pratap Singh of Jaipur; who also impressed Queen Victoria so much so that the Polo Team in England copied the flared pants and made them a costume for the players. 

Originally created as tight fitting pants which fit perfectly and clung to the skin from thigh and calves to the ankle, Jodhpuri Pants were later changed into flared near the thighs and hips and snug from calves to the ankle accompanied by tall riding boots for royals participating in polo matches.

The idea was to enable breathing and avoid chafing of both legs. They are immensely famous in Rajasthan and worn till date in royal and traditional Rajasthani wedding ceremonies.  Later US fashion label Ralph Lauren started producing exclusive Polo T shirts and pants styled in sync with Jodhpuris which are worn not only by polo players but also universal customers.
