FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for competition?
While the HKM Emma breeches are highly functional, check your specific discipline's rulebook regarding full-seat styles and color requirements for competition.
Can I tumble dry these breeches?
It is strongly recommended to air dry them to protect the integrity of the silicone grip and the elastic fibers.
What is the best way to clean the silicone seat?
A standard delicate wash cycle is usually sufficient; avoid bleach, heavy agitation, and fabric softeners.
Do the breeches provide a secure fit for different body types?
The bi-elastic nature of the fabric is designed to offer a flexible, body-contouring fit for a wide range of riders.
Is the phone pocket large enough for modern smartphones?
The pocket is designed to accommodate most standard-sized mobile phones securely during movement.
Troubleshooting
Silicone grip losing tackiness
Wash the breeches inside out using a mild detergent and ensure all residue is rinsed away completely.
Fabric bunching at the ankle
Ensure the elastic cuffs are pulled taut and are not twisted before putting on your riding boots.
Difficulty with fit
Verify your measurements against the HKM sizing chart, as bi-elastic materials have specific stretch tolerances.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your HKM Emma breeches remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the breeches are pulled up fully to allow the elastic ankle cuffs to sit flat against your leg, preventing friction inside your boots.
- Washing: Use a gentle, cool machine wash cycle. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the silicone grip properties.
- Drying: Always air dry the breeches away from direct heat sources to prevent the fabric from losing its elasticity.
- Storage: Keep away from sharp objects that could catch the polyester fabric or tear the silicone seat.
