Interesting.
I posted earlier in this thread and somehow the post vanished. I was objecting to the inferred hierarchy in formality between jodhpurs and Chelsea's, as unless someone is paying close attention they look very similar from ten feet away. Jodhpurs being less common and thus more 'exclusive' I would suggest if any difference does exist that they are slightly the more formal.
From the gentleman gazette article it seems to be immediately after the invention of vulcanised rubber in 1844, a Victorian era.
