FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for daily schooling?

Yes, the durable, moisture-wicking fabric is designed for both the rigors of daily training and the requirements of competition.

Are the rear pockets functional?

No, the rear pockets are faux welt pockets designed for aesthetic purposes to maintain a clean, classic silhouette.

Do the silicone grips affect saddle leather?

The matte silicone grips are designed to be saddle-friendly, providing security without causing damage to standard leather saddles.

How should I choose the right size?

These breeches follow UK men's waist sizing. It is recommended to measure your natural waistline and compare it to the available UK size options.

Can I tumble dry these breeches?

It is not recommended. Air drying is the best method to preserve the integrity of the technical fabric and the silicone grip print.

Troubleshooting

Silicone grip losing adhesion over time

Avoid using fabric conditioners in the wash and ensure the breeches are turned inside out during the cleaning process.

Fabric appearing damp during intense exercise

Ensure the breeches are the correct fit; if they are too loose, the moisture-wicking technology cannot effectively pull sweat away from the skin.
