Product Information

Full details

These LeMieux Young Rider Sparkle Orla Pull On breeches are designed for young equestrians seeking comfort, performance, and a touch of flair. The key benefit is the combination of technical, sweat-wicking fabric with a secure, supportive fit, allowing for freedom of movement and all-day comfort. A potential caveat to consider is that the all-over glitter design, while stylish, may require specific care to maintain its appearance. These pull-on breeches feature a seamless, four-way stretch design, a high-rise supportive waistband, and a full silicone seat for grip. They are constructed from lightweight, UPF30+ technical fabric with moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties, and include convenient leg pockets.

FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for competitions?

The sparkle design makes them a fun choice for schooling or less formal competitions. For more formal events, traditional breeches might be preferred, but they are excellent for practice and adding flair.

What is UPF30+ protection?

UPF30+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor, meaning the fabric blocks at least 97% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering good sun protection for the skin.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the size guide for young riders and consider the measurements provided. The high-rise, elasticated waistband and seamless design aim for a supportive yet comfortable fit across a range of body types within the specified age group.

Can the glitter wash off?

The glitter is designed to be durable, but improper washing can cause it to degrade. Always follow the care instructions: wash cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle, and air dry. Avoid bleach and ironing.

What is the main benefit of the silicone seat?

The full silicone seat provides enhanced grip and stability in the saddle, helping the rider maintain a secure position and confidence during various riding activities.

Are these waterproof?

No, these breeches are designed for breathability and moisture-wicking, not for waterproofing. They are suitable for typical riding conditions but not for heavy rain.

What age group are these designed for?

These are specifically designed for young riders (kids).

Troubleshooting

Breeches feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The four-way stretch fabric offers flexibility, but proper sizing is crucial for comfort and performance.

Glitter is peeling or coming off.

This may indicate improper washing. Ensure you are washing inside out on a cold, gentle cycle and air drying. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, and ironing.

Rider feels warm or sweaty.

While the fabric is moisture-wicking, prolonged intense activity in very hot conditions can still lead to warmth. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt can impede wicking properties. Check that the fit is not too tight, which could restrict airflow.

Pocket is too small for a phone.

The leg pockets are designed for smaller essentials. Larger smartphones may not fit securely. Consider a phone armband or leaving your phone secured elsewhere during intense riding.
