FAQs

What does the 'Tri Factor' name refer to?

'Tri Factor' refers to the combination of three key technologies: cooling technology (Climate Tek™), compression, and silicone grip, all designed to enhance rider performance and comfort.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

Refer to the Ariat sizing guide for accurate measurements. The breeches should fit snugly due to the compression design, but should not restrict movement or cause discomfort. The CFS™ Calf Fit System should also provide a custom fit at the calf and ankle.

Are these breeches suitable for all riding disciplines?

Yes, they are versatile and suitable for various equestrian disciplines, including dressage, show jumping, and general riding, due to their grip, comfort, and supportive features.

How often should I wash my Tri Factor breeches?

It is recommended to wash them after each use to maintain hygiene and the effectiveness of the Moisture Movement Technology™ and the silicone grip. Follow the specific care instructions provided.

Can I wear these in hot weather?

The Climate Tek™ technology is designed for temperature regulation and cooling. While they are better suited for warmer conditions than standard breeches, performance in extreme heat can vary based on individual rider physiology and exertion levels.

What is the benefit of the Euro seat?

The Euro seat is a seam design that typically sits higher in the back and is contoured, offering a more flattering silhouette and potentially improved comfort and freedom of movement in the saddle.

Do the faux back pockets offer any utility?

The faux back pockets are primarily for aesthetic purposes, contributing to the classic breech look. They do not provide functional storage.

Troubleshooting

Reduced silicone grip effectiveness

Ensure breeches are washed according to care instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade the silicone's grip. Check for excessive wear on the knee patch area.

Compression feels too tight

Verify you have the correct size based on the Ariat sizing chart. Ensure the CFS™ Calf Fit System is properly positioned. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different Ariat model with a less compressive fit.

Moisture-wicking seems ineffective

Ensure the garment is clean and free of residues (like fabric softener or detergent buildup) that can impede wicking. For extreme heat, remember that the technology assists, but conditions can still be challenging.

Stitching or seams coming undone

Inspect the garment for damage. If the breeches are within the warranty period, contact the retailer or Ariat customer service for potential repair or replacement.
