FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for competition?
While designed for comfort and performance, their hybrid nature with suede patches and fleece lining might make them more suitable for training and schooling rather than formal competition, depending on the specific discipline rules.
What is the primary benefit of the suede knee patches?
The suede knee patches provide enhanced grip and stability in the saddle, helping to maintain a secure position and control.
Can these breeches be worn in hot weather?
Due to the fleece lining, these breeches are best suited for cooler temperatures. They may be too warm for very hot weather conditions.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing guide and ensure you select the correct UK waist size (this model is UK 32). The stretch twill fabric offers some flexibility.
What differentiates hybrid breeches?
Hybrid breeches typically combine features of traditional breeches with elements like stretch fabrics, modern grip technologies (like suede patches), and enhanced comfort linings for versatile use.
How should I care for the suede patches?
Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners. Gently brush the suede with a suede brush if it becomes matted.
Troubleshooting
Breeches feel too tight or restrictive
Ensure the correct size (UK 32 waist) has been purchased. Allow a short break-in period as the stretch twill fabric may adjust to your body.
Suede knee patches losing grip
Avoid using fabric softeners during washing. Gently brush the suede patches with a suede brush to restore texture.
Fleece lining feels excessively warm
These breeches are designed for cooler weather. Consider lighter weight breeches for very warm conditions. Ensure proper ventilation when possible.
Fabric pilling after washing
Wash inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the integrity and longevity of the stretch twill fabric and suede knee patches, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
- Detergents: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the grip of the suede patches and affect the fabric's stretch properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid high heat, which can cause shrinkage and damage the materials.
- Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting and avoid direct contact with the suede patches.
