FAQs
Can these breeches be worn for competitions?
Yes, the classic pleat front and professional cut make them highly suitable for training, clinics, and informal competitions.
How should I measure my waist for these breeches?
Measure around your natural waistline where you typically wear your trousers to ensure the best fit for the pleat front style.
Are the silicone patches durable?
Yes, they are designed to withstand the friction of the saddle, provided they are cared for according to the laundering instructions.
Do these breeches come in different lengths?
The breeches are sized by waist measurements. The stretch lower leg cuffs are designed to accommodate a variety of leg lengths comfortably.
Should I use fabric softener?
It is generally recommended to avoid fabric softeners, as they can interfere with the grip of the silicone patches and the breathability of the silk material.
Troubleshooting
Silicone grip losing tackiness
Gently wipe the silicone patches with a damp cloth to remove dust and dirt build-up that can accumulate during use.
Fabric snagging or showing wear
Avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp grooming tools and ensure they are washed separately from garments with zippers or hooks.
Difficulty with zipper movement
Check for debris in the pocket tracks and ensure the fabric is not caught; if stiff, rub with a standard wax pencil to lubricate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your breeches, always refer to the internal garment label before cleaning. Due to the silk composition, it is recommended to wash on a cool, delicate cycle with a mild detergent designed for natural fibers. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can degrade the silicone grip and compromise the integrity of the silk. Ensure you select the correct waist size to take full advantage of the pleat front design, which is intended to sit comfortably at the natural waistline. These breeches are compatible with standard riding boots and chaps.
