FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for all equestrian disciplines?

The Aubrion Optima MX Breeches are designed with features like full seat silicone grips and a design compliant with GB affiliated competition standards. While versatile, they are optimized for performance in disciplines that benefit from these specific features.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Aubrion, paying close attention to waist and inseam measurements. The 'size_womans_dress_uk' attribute in the product information suggests they are sized according to UK dress sizes.

Can I use fabric softener when washing these breeches?

No, it is not recommended to use fabric softener as it can degrade the silicone grip and negatively affect the moisture-wicking properties of the fabric.

What does 'MX design' refer to?

'MX design' in this context refers to a style that combines classic equestrian styling with modern technical features, often seen in performance riding wear.

Are the pockets secure enough for a phone?

The breeches feature practical zip pockets, which are generally secure enough for items like a phone during riding activities.

What is the benefit of the full seat silicone grips?

The full seat silicone grips provide enhanced stability and a secure connection with the saddle, improving rider position and confidence during movement.

Do these breeches have a high waist?

Yes, the Aubrion Optima MX Breeches are designed with a high waist for a comfortable and secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Breeches feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The anatomical cut is designed for an athletic fit, so ensure it is snug but not constricting. Check the waist fastenings for proper closure.

Reduced grip from silicone.

Wash the breeches according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softener. Ensure the silicone areas are clean and free from debris. Silicone grip can diminish over time with extensive use and washing.

Moisture-wicking properties seem ineffective.

Confirm the garment is clean. Fabric softeners and residue from detergents can impede moisture-wicking capabilities. Wash with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Ensure the garment is not excessively worn, as performance may decrease with age.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Aubrion Optima MX Breeches require no specific setup beyond proper wear. Ensure they are zipped up using the zip fly and secured with the twin slide fastenings at the waist. The belt loops allow for the addition of a belt if desired.

Compatibility: These breeches are designed for adult female riders and are compatible with standard equestrian footwear. They are compliant with GB affiliated competition rules, making them suitable for events under these regulations.

Care: To maintain the integrity and performance of the breeches, especially the silicone grips and moisture-wicking properties:

  2. Detergents: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the silicone grip and affect fabric performance.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods.
