FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for formal dressage shows?
While highly functional, the denim-look fabric is better suited for schooling, daily training, or casual barn wear rather than traditional, formal dressage competition dress codes.
Is the phone pocket large enough for modern smartphones?
The pocket is designed to accommodate most standard-sized smartphones securely.
Does the gel seat affect the breathability of the breeches?
The gel seat provides grip but can slightly reduce airflow; however, the bi-stretch cotton blend is chosen to balance durability with breathability.
Can I use fabric softener when washing these?
It is recommended to avoid heavy fabric softeners, as they can leave a residue on the gel seat that may make it slippery.
What is the primary material used?
These breeches are made from a high-quality, bi-stretch cotton-based fabric designed for equestrian durability.
Troubleshooting
Gel seat losing grip over time
Wash the breeches inside out to remove dust and debris that may have collected on the gel, which often restores tackiness.
Waistband feels too loose
Utilize the belt loops with a suitable equestrian belt to secure the waistband in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Dublin Shona Breeches, proper maintenance is essential:
- Fitting: Ensure the mid-rise waist is positioned correctly on your hips. Use the belt loops to adjust the waist tightness if necessary.
- Washing: Turn the breeches inside out before washing to protect the gel print on the seat. Use a mild detergent and a gentle cycle with cold water.
- Drying: Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the integrity of the gel seat and the stretch properties of the cotton-blend fabric. Air drying on a hanger is recommended.
- Storage: Hang the breeches in a dry, ventilated area. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fabric fading.
