Full details
The LeMieux Naomi Pull On Breeches are designed for adult women seeking comfort and freedom of movement in the saddle. The key benefit is their seamless, stretchy fabric that supports a full range of motion, with a full silicone seat for enhanced grip.

FAQs
What makes the Naomi Pull On Breeches different from other riding breeches?
The Naomi Pull On Breeches are distinguished by their seamless, highly stretchy fabric for maximum comfort and movement, a full silicone seat for enhanced grip, and a tapered lower leg design to prevent bunching under boots. They also feature dual phone pockets and an easy pull-on style.
Are these breeches suitable for all riding disciplines?
Yes, they are versatile. The full silicone seat makes them particularly suitable for disciplines requiring extra grip, like dressage and show jumping practice, but the comfort and flexibility are beneficial for all riding styles.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by LeMieux, paying attention to waist and hip measurements. The stretchy nature offers some flexibility, but the tapered leg fit means it's important to get the length and calf fit right.
Can I wear these in hot weather?
The breathable, stretchy fabric is generally comfortable. However, they are not specifically designed as lightweight summer breeches. For very hot conditions, consider lighter-weight alternatives.
How durable is the seamless fabric?
The nylon blend offers good durability for regular riding and yard work. For extreme conditions or very frequent heavy use, consider breeches specifically designed for maximum durability.
What is the advantage of the tapered lower leg?
The tapered design reduces bulk around the ankle area, ensuring a smooth and comfortable fit when wearing riding boots or socks. This prevents uncomfortable bunching and chafing.
How do I care for the silicone seat to maintain grip?
To maintain the silicone grip, avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry. Ensure the breeches are clean from dirt and oils for optimal performance.
Troubleshooting
Breeches feel too tight in the lower leg.
Ensure socks and boots are pulled on smoothly over the tapered section. If persistent, consider trying a different size or style if your calf circumference is significantly above average.
Silicone grip is reduced.
Ensure breeches are clean and free from dirt or oils. Avoid using fabric softener during washing, as it can affect the silicone's adherence. Wash according to care instructions.
Waistband feels loose.
These breeches are designed for a snug fit. If the waistband is significantly loose, check if the correct size has been selected. Washing them might slightly reduce their size if they have stretched.
Phone pocket feels insecure.
Ensure the phone is placed fully within the pocket and not overfilled. The pocket is designed for standard-sized smartphones and similar items; larger or oddly shaped items may not fit securely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are pull-on breeches, so there is no specific setup required. Simply put them on and adjust for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility:
- Footwear: The tapered lower leg is designed to fit smoothly under most standard riding boots and socks. Ensure your boots are not overly tight to accommodate the breeches.
- Layers: Can be worn with base layers in colder weather, though the seamless design offers good warmth on its own.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the silicone grip.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric and silicone.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
