Product Information

Full details

Designed for adult equestrians who prioritize comfort during summer training, the HKM Tampa Silicone Knee Patch Riding Breeches offer a unique cooling fabric technology that helps regulate body temperature in the saddle. While these breeches provide excellent grip and flexibility, riders should note that the nylon-based material is specialized for warm-weather performance and may feel different than traditional thick cotton breeches.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for winter riding?

The fabric is designed for a cooling effect, so they may be too lightweight for cold weather without thermal under-layers.

Do the silicone knee patches wear off easily?

With proper care and by avoiding abrasive surfaces, the silicone is durable and designed to withstand regular friction in the saddle.

Can I use these for competition?

Yes, their clean design is suitable for many training environments, though you should verify your specific show's dress code regarding colors.

What is the primary material composition?

These breeches are primarily made from high-quality, stretch-oriented nylon designed for durability and comfort.

Do these breeches come with a belt?

No, they include belt loops, but a belt must be purchased separately.

Troubleshooting

Silicone grip feels slippery

Ensure the patches are free of hair, dirt, or dust. Clean with a damp cloth to restore tackiness.

Material seems slightly loose after long wear

Machine wash and dry according to the instructions; the heat often helps the elastic fibers recover their shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Innovative fabric feels cool on the skin during hot summer days
  • Excellent freedom of movement due to high-stretch nylon composition
  • Silicone patches provide reliable grip without being too stiff
  • Machine washable and dryer-safe for easy maintenance

Cons

  • Specific nylon feel may not suit riders who prefer heavy-duty cotton fabrics
  • Limited to knee-patch style, which may not offer as much security as full-seat variants
  • Fit is specific to HKM sizing, requiring careful measurement before purchase

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the cooling fabric and the silicone grip, wash these breeches at 30 degrees Celsius. They are machine washable and can be placed in the dryer, which is a significant convenience for frequent riders. Ensure the zipper is closed before washing to prevent snagging. Because these are nylon-based, avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the silicone grip properties over time.
