FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for competition?

Yes, they are designed to comply with GB affiliated competition regulations.

Do the rear pockets hold items?

No, the rear pockets are faux welt pockets designed purely for aesthetic styling.

How should I wash the MX-KG breeches?

Wash on a cool, gentle cycle with the garment turned inside out to preserve the silicone grips.

What is the fit of the Optima series?

These are cut for an athletic, tailored fit. If you prefer a looser feel, consider your measurements carefully against the size guide.

Does the silicone grip cover the entire leg?

The MX-KG model features a full seat and leg grip in a matte silicone print.

Troubleshooting

Silicone grip losing traction

Wash the garment inside out to remove dirt and lint buildup from the silicone surface.

Fabric feeling less moisture-wicking over time

Avoid using fabric softeners during wash cycles, as they block the pores of the technical fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick-drying fabric for easy maintenance
  • Enhanced saddle security from silicone grip patterns
  • Competition-compliant design for GB affiliated events
  • Polished, professional look suitable for show rings

Cons

  • Faux rear pockets offer no functional storage space
  • Specific athletic fit requires accurate waist measurement
  • Silicone grip may feel different than traditional leather patches

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best results, ensure the breeches are worn with a properly fitted belt to utilize the integrated belt loops. When caring for these breeches, it is recommended to wash them inside out on a gentle cycle to protect the integrity of the silicone grip patterns. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as these can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce their effectiveness. Always air dry when possible to maintain the shape and longevity of the synthetic fabric blend.
