This outfit is worn by Felicity in the book Meet Felicity and in the DVD Felicity: An American Girl Adventure. It was introduced in 1998 and retired in 2003.
PC description: Felicity borrowed Ben's breeches from the mending pile and wore them to run to her secret morning visits with Penny. Her black breeches, trimmed with a set of shiny gold buttons, fasten below the knee and on the front flap. The matching black three-cornered hat is edged with a smart berry-colored ribbon.
Very nice. Could have used extra shift. A.

Riding Breeches A
I have 2 pairs of these, and I think they are very well made. The breeches have some cute detail and the hat is nice. If they hadn't made these I would be at a loss ofr a hat for my boys, unless of ocurse I got the riding habit....

This is my least favorite of Felicity's Outfits. The Breeches are tight on any chubby doll and is hard to get on. The detail is cute but not outstanding.
I would like the set more if it came with a shift and had a different hat. The hat is too much like the riding habit.
Overall, I would give this set an B-

They don't fit my 1995 Felicity. However, I just love the look of it because it looks SO colonial so Elizabeth has taken to wearing it, and it contrasts really nicely with her very girly curls. In the picture, Elizabeth is wearing it with Felicity's elastic neck shift, but it actually fits better with the newer shift that Elizabeth came with.  |

I really like the breeches. A very different sort of outfit for Felicity. I purchased mine off of ebay earlier this year.
The detail is cute and much better than I thought it would be. It fits my 2009 Lissie just fine, though it can be annoying to get on. It works well with the newer shift that my Felicity came in.
The hat is nice - plain and simple, but very nice. And practical. It can go with many other things.
So:
Riding Breeches: A
Conclusion: This is a very interesting part of Felicity's wardrobe and am happy to have it in my collection!
