Product Information

Full details

These LeMieux Young Rider Stormwear Waterproof Chaps are designed for children aged 9-10 who need reliable protection against wet and cold weather during outdoor activities, especially equestrian pursuits. The key benefit is staying warm, dry, and comfortable thanks to their fully waterproof and breathable DryTex fabric with a thermal fleece lining. A potential consideration is that while offering excellent protection, they are specifically designed for equestrian use and may not be the primary choice for general-purpose outdoor wear.

FAQs

Are these chaps suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, they feature a thermal fleece lining which provides significant warmth, making them ideal for cold winter days at the yard.

How do I determine the correct size?

This variant is for kids aged 9-10 years (UK size). Please refer to a sizing chart if available, or measure waist and leg circumference for best fit.

Can I wear these for activities other than riding?

While designed for riding, their waterproof and warm features make them suitable for other outdoor activities in wet and cold weather, though the silicone knee grips are specific to equestrian needs.

How do I clean the waterproof zips?

Gently wipe the zips with a damp cloth. For best performance, ensure the pocket is zipped up before washing the chaps.

What is the waterproof rating and breathability rating?

The chaps have a waterproof rating of 5000mm and a breathability rating of 4000mvp.

Are there other sizes available for young riders?

Yes, LeMieux typically offers a range of sizes for young riders. Please check product listings for other available sizes such as 7-8 years or other age groups.

How do the adjustable straps work?

The waistband has an adjustable fastening for a secure fit around the waist, and the elasticated boot straps at the hem are designed to fit snugly around riding boots.

Troubleshooting

Chaps feel tight or restrictive

Ensure the adjustable waistband and boot straps are loosened before putting them on, then adjust for a comfortable fit. Check that you are wearing appropriate base layers.

Water seeping through seams

While the fabric is waterproof, seams can sometimes be a point of entry for water if the seam sealing is compromised. Ensure the garment is within its warranty period and contact customer support. Avoid harsh detergents which can degrade seam treatments.

Reduced breathability

Over time, dirt and oils can clog the pores of the membrane. Follow the care instructions for washing to remove any build-up and restore breathability.

Silicone knee grips losing effectiveness

Clean the inside of the chaps where the grips are located with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue that might be affecting their grip.

Pros and Cons

  • Warm thermal lining is ideal for cold conditions.
  • Durable construction with reinforced areas for longevity.
  • Provides enhanced stability in the saddle with silicone knee grips.
  • Secure and adjustable fit for personalized comfort.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for equestrian use, may be overly specialized for other activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These chaps are designed for immediate use. Simply pull them on over your riding breeches or trousers. Adjust the waistband using the integrated fastening for a snug fit. Secure the lower hem around your riding boots using the adjustable elasticated boot straps.

Compatibility: The chaps are designed to be worn over standard riding attire and are compatible with most types of riding boots. Their unisex design makes them suitable for all young riders.

Care Instructions: To maintain the waterproof and breathable properties of the DryTex fabric, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the fabric's performance. Tumble dry on a low heat or hang to dry away from direct heat sources. Do not dry clean.
