FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for competition?
The black color and professional design make them suitable for many training environments, though check your local club rules for specific color requirements.
What is the primary material used?
They are constructed from a high-quality, breathable polyester blend that offers both elasticity and a compression effect.
Can I use these with tall riding boots?
Yes, the elastic leg cuff is specifically designed to fit smoothly under tall boots without creating pressure points.
How should I measure for the correct size?
Measure your natural waistline and refer to the E.L.T size guide, as these are tailored to a performance compression fit.
Do the pockets have closures?
The front pockets are open for easy access, while the rear patch pockets feature buttons for security.
Is the fabric thick?
The material is a bonded, shape-retaining fabric that provides a durable feel and compression without being excessively heavy or hot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the E.L.T Mailo Breeches, it is recommended to wash them inside out on a gentle cycle, using a mild detergent that does not contain fabric softeners, as these can degrade the silicone grip. Avoid tumble drying; hang them in a shaded area to maintain the integrity of the elastic fibres. These breeches are compatible with standard equestrian tall boots or half-chaps, as the elastic leg cuff is designed to minimize bulk around the ankle. Always verify your specific waist size according to the E.L.T size chart, as European sizing can differ from standard street wear.
