FAQs

What material are the John Whitaker Riding Tights made of?

They are made from a stretch blend of 93% Polyester and 7% Spandex, offering comfort and shape retention.

Are these tights suitable for all types of riding?

Yes, they are designed for general equestrian use, offering comfort and grip suitable for various disciplines. However, they are primarily performance-oriented for riding.

How do I care for the silicone knee patches?

To maintain the grip, avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Wash with like colors in cold water and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron the patches.

What is the benefit of the reduced seams?

Reduced seams are incorporated to minimize chafing and irritation, providing a more comfortable fit, especially during extended periods of wear.

Can I wear these for casual activities outside of riding?

While they offer comfort, their design with silicone knee patches is specific to riding. They are best suited for equestrian activities but can be worn for other casual activities where their features are not a hindrance.

How secure are the phone pockets?

The pockets are designed to hold a standard smartphone securely during riding. Ensure the phone is fully seated within the pocket for maximum security.

Do these riding tights retain their shape after washing?

Yes, the Spandex blend is specifically chosen for its ability to retain shape after washing, ensuring the tights remain a good fit over time.

Troubleshooting

Tights feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Refer to a sizing chart if available and consider the stretch properties. If still uncomfortable, check if a different size from the same product line is available.

Silicone knee patches are losing grip.

Ensure you are following the care instructions, particularly regarding the avoidance of fabric softeners and high heat during drying. Clean the patches gently with a damp cloth if they appear dirty.

Phone pocket feels insecure.

Ensure the phone is placed fully within the pocket and that the pocket flap (if applicable) is closed. The pocket is designed for standard smartphone sizes; larger or unusually shaped devices may not fit securely.

Fabric feels restrictive.

Confirm that the garment is oriented correctly and that the 4-way stretch is being utilized. Ensure the waistband is properly positioned. The fabric is designed for maximum flexibility.

  • Enhanced grip and stability with silicone knee patches.
  • Practical storage with two secure phone pockets.

  • Designed for performance and everyday wear in equestrian settings.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for riding, may not be suitable for all non-equestrian activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The John Whitaker Riding Tights require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and comfort.

Compatibility: These riding tights are designed for adult female riders and are compatible with most standard English saddles. The silicone knee patches are intended to work with traditional saddle materials.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Detergents: Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as they can degrade the silicone grip and affect the fabric's properties.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the silicone patches and elastic waistband.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron the silicone knee patches. If ironing the garment is necessary, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with the patches.
