FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for all seasons?

These breeches are ideal for cooler temperatures (autumn, winter, spring) due to their fleece backing. They may be too warm for intense riding in hot summer weather.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the Musto sizing chart, paying close attention to waist and hip measurements. The UK14 size corresponds to specific measurements provided by Musto.

Can I wear these for show jumping or dressage competitions?

Yes, the branding on these breeches is designed to be within competition standards, making them suitable for various equestrian disciplines.

How durable is the Clarino seat?

Clarino is a high-quality synthetic suede known for its durability and grip, providing a reliable seat for extended riding.

What makes ActiveSeam technology different from standard stitching?

ActiveSeam is a unique bonding and stitching technique that creates seams which are flatter, stronger, more elastic, and less noticeable against the skin compared to traditional flat lock stitching.

Can I use regular laundry detergent?

It is recommended to use a mild detergent specifically designed for technical fabrics or outdoor wear. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can compromise the fabric's performance properties.

Troubleshooting

Seams feel slightly stiff initially.

This is normal for new ActiveSeam technology. The seams will soften and become more flexible with wear and washing.

Reduced water repellency.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for technical outerwear following product instructions.

Pilling on the fleece lining.

Occasional minor pilling can occur with fleece. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive contact can help minimize this. Do not use a harsh brush.
