FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for formal competitions?

Yes, they are designed to comply with GB affiliated competition regulations.

Can I tumble dry these breeches?

No, it is highly recommended to air dry them to protect the silicone grips and fabric longevity.

Do the pockets have real storage capacity?

The front pockets are functional, while the rear pockets are faux designs intended for style.

How should I measure for the right size?

Measure your natural waistline in inches to match the UK sizing standard provided.

Does the silicone print wear off?

With proper care—specifically washing inside out and avoiding harsh chemicals—the silicone is designed for high durability and long-term use.

What is the primary material used?

The breeches use a technical, moisture-wicking fabric blend designed for elite performance.

Troubleshooting

Silicone grip losing traction

Wash the breeches inside out using a mild detergent and ensure there is no residual fabric softener on the surface.

Difficulty with slide fasteners

Ensure the waistband is properly aligned and clean any debris or dust from the slide mechanism.

Fabric appearing stretched

Avoid heat drying; wash in cold water to allow the high-performance fibers to regain their original shape.

Pros and Cons

  • Advanced moisture-wicking properties for comfort
  • Excellent saddle security via matte silicone print
  • Professional look suitable for affiliated competitions
  • Durable yet flexible material construction

Cons

  • Requires specific care to maintain silicone grip integrity
  • Limited to one color option (Black)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These breeches feature standard belt loops, allowing for easy pairing with your preferred riding belt. They are designed to comply with GB affiliated competition regulations, making them a safe choice for formal events. To care for your breeches, machine wash them inside out on a gentle, cool cycle to protect the silicone grip. Always air dry to preserve the technical fibers and the adhesive properties of the silicone; avoid using heavy fabric softeners which can degrade the moisture-wicking efficiency.
