FAQs
Is the skirt waterproof?
The skirt is water-repellent, meaning it is designed to protect against light rain and moisture but is not fully waterproof in heavy downpours.
Can I wear this over breeches?
Yes, the skirt is designed to be worn as an outer layer over your existing riding breeches for added warmth.
How do I ensure the correct fit for my child?
The skirt features an adjustable waist, but please refer to the size 5-6 children's sizing guidelines to ensure the length is appropriate for the rider.
Will this restrict movement in the saddle?
No, the design is specifically tailored for riding with internal leg loops that keep the material secure and out of the way of the horse's movement.
Are the reflective details effective at night?
The reflective detailing provides enhanced visibility in low-light conditions when light reflects off the panels, though it is not a substitute for proper lighting equipment.
What is the best way to clean the fleece lining?
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle and hang dry to prevent the fleece from matting.
Troubleshooting
Skirt shifts while riding
Ensure the internal leg loops are securely fastened and adjusted to fit comfortably around the thighs.
Touch-tape fastener not sticking
Clean the hook-and-loop surface of any lint, horse hair, or debris to restore optimal adhesion.
Water-repellency seems to be wearing off
If the fabric no longer sheds water, consider using a specialized outdoor gear re-waterproofing spray suitable for synthetic fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the skirt, wrap it around the waist and adjust the touch-tape fastener for a snug yet comfortable fit that allows for full range of motion. Before mounting the horse, engage the internal leg loops to secure the skirt's position.
Regarding care, the polyester material is durable but should be machine washed on a gentle, cool cycle to preserve the integrity of the water-repellent finish. Avoid tumble drying or using harsh detergents, as these can degrade the thermal lining and reflective coatings over time. Always air dry the garment in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
