FAQs
Can I put these tights in the tumble dryer?
No, you must not tumble dry these tights as the heat will damage the silicone grips and the elasticity of the fabric.
Will my smartphone fit in the pocket?
The side pocket measures 13x16cm, which is designed to accommodate most standard-sized modern smartphones comfortably.
Are these tights suitable for competition?
The white variant is suitable for competition use, though you should always check your specific governing body's rules regarding silicone grip visibility.
Do these tights require an iron?
No, the polyester-spandex blend is designed to be crease-resistant, and ironing is explicitly prohibited as it damages the material and grips.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
These tights follow standard UK sizing; choose your regular clothing size, noting the 7cm waistband is designed to be snug.
Troubleshooting
Silicone grips starting to lose stickiness
Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can coat the silicone and reduce its grip properties.
Fabric appears thin or worn after extensive use
Check your stirrup leathers and saddle for rough surfaces that might cause excessive friction, and ensure you are washing the tights inside out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Aisha Riding Tights, follow these care guidelines carefully. Since the grips are made of silicone, extreme heat will cause them to peel or lose their effectiveness.
- Washing: Always wash at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius in a standard machine cycle.
- Detergents: Use mild detergents; avoid heavy-duty bleach or harsh chemicals that could break down the spandex fibres.
- Drying: Do not use a tumble dryer. Hang-dry the tights in a shaded area away from direct, harsh sunlight to prevent colour fading.
- Finishing: Do not iron the tights; the heat from an iron will permanently damage both the synthetic fabric and the silicone grip pattern.
