Product Information

Full details

The LeMieux Amy Bregging is designed for adult women seeking the sophisticated look of traditional breeches combined with the comfort and flexibility of leggings. Its key benefit lies in its breathable technical fabric and a full silicone seat for enhanced stability. A potential consideration is that the faux fly zip might not suit those who prefer a fully functional zipper.

FAQs

Are these suitable for competitive riding?

The Amy Bregging offers a smart appearance and good grip, making them suitable for schooling and everyday riding. For formal competitions, traditional breeches may be required by specific disciplines or rules.

What is the difference between breeches and breggings?

Breeches are traditional riding trousers with a full seat or knee patches, often with a zip and button closure. Breggings, like the Amy Bregging, combine the look of breeches with the comfort and pull-on style of leggings.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the LeMieux sizing chart for accurate measurements. The breggings are designed to fit snugly but comfortably, similar to high-quality leggings.

Can I wear these in cold weather?

The technical fabric is breathable but may not provide significant insulation. For very cold weather, consider layering with a warmer base layer or thicker socks.

How durable is the silicone seat?

The full silicone-printed seat is designed for durability and repeated use. Following the care instructions will help maintain its grip and integrity.

Can the faux fly zip be opened?

No, the fly zip is a design feature to enhance the breech-like appearance and is not functional; it cannot be opened.

What material are they made from?

They are made from a breathable technical fabric, primarily polyester, designed for comfort and performance.

Troubleshooting

Breggings feel tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The technical fabric has some stretch, but a size too small will feel restrictive. Check the sizing guide.

Silicone seat grip is reduced

Ensure the seat area is clean and free from dirt, mud, or saddle soap residue. Wash the breggings according to care instructions, as residue can affect grip.

Mesh sock bunches under boots

Ensure the mesh sock is pulled up smoothly and evenly. If the issue persists, ensure your boots are not too tight or consider a slightly thinner sock if layering.

Phone pocket feels insecure

While designed for phones, ensure the phone is placed fully within the pocket and the leg opening does not obstruct it. For very vigorous activity, consider additional security.
