FAQs
Are these tights suitable for competition?
While they provide a sleek look, their suitability depends on your specific discipline's dress code; always check your competition rulebook.
Do these tights have pockets?
The core design focuses on a streamlined silhouette, prioritize minimal bulk by omitting bulky pockets.
Can I wear these in the winter?
These are made of a performance lightweight material and are not thermal, so they are best suited for warmer weather or indoor riding.
How do I determine my size?
These tights follow standard UK dress sizing; the size UK 8 corresponds to standard athletic sizing for that category.
Are the knee patches real leather?
No, they are made from high-quality synthetic suede for easier care and consistent grip.
Troubleshooting
Knee patches losing grip
Clean the patches with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or horse hair which can reduce friction.
Fabric losing shape
Ensure you are following the cold-water wash instructions; heat is the primary cause of elastic breakdown.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are pull-on tights, setup is straightforward—simply pull them on as you would standard leggings. To ensure the longevity of the synthetic suede knee patches and the elasticity of the fabric, machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the technical properties of the performance fabric. Hang to air dry, as high heat from a tumble dryer can compromise the stretch material and the adhesive on the knee patches.
