Product Information
Full details
The Toggi Hayes Winter Breeches are designed for adult female equestrians who require extra warmth and stability during colder riding months. Crafted from a 4-way stretch woven fabric with a brushed back, these breeches provide excellent thermal insulation while maintaining the flexibility needed in the saddle. While they offer a water-repellent finish and superior grip, users should note that they are specifically engineered for winter conditions and may be too warm for use during the height of summer.

FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for summer riding?
No, the brushed back fabric is designed to trap heat, which will likely feel too hot for summer temperatures.
How do I ensure the right fit for the silicone seat?
The breeches should feel snug and supportive; if the silicone bunches up while standing, consider if the size is too large.
Can I tumble dry these breeches?
It is not recommended. Air drying is best to protect the silicone seat and the 4-way stretch elastic properties.
Does the water-repellent finish mean they are waterproof?
They are water-repellent, meaning they will shed light rain and spray, but they are not fully waterproof and may soak through in heavy rain.
What is the benefit of the knitted ankle panel?
It reduces the bulk around the ankle, preventing pressure points and discomfort inside tight-fitting riding boots.
Troubleshooting
Silicone grip losing tackiness
Wash the garment inside out to remove dirt or oil buildup, and ensure you are not using fabric softener during the laundry cycle.
Water-repellent finish fading
Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need refreshing; use a technical garment wash-in treatment designed for outdoor apparel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your breeches maintain their performance features, proper care is essential. Wash the breeches in cool water with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners which can degrade the silicone grip and the water-repellent finish. It is recommended to air dry the breeches rather than using a tumble dryer, as heat can damage the elastic fibers and the silicone detailing. When storing, ensure they are clean and completely dry to prevent mildew from forming on the brushed interior. These breeches are compatible with most standard English riding boots, including tall field boots and paddock boots with half chaps, thanks to the streamlined ankle design.
