Full details

These breeches provide essential warmth and weather resistance through a waterproof, windproof, and breathable construction, though they are specialized for cold-weather use and may feel too bulky for milder climates. Featuring 120g polyester padding, full-length side zippers, and practical snow gaiters, they ensure comfort and functionality even in challenging outdoor conditions.

FAQs

Are these breeches suitable for warm weather?

No, they are specifically insulated with 120g polyester and intended for cold-weather winter riding.

Can I wear these over my regular riding clothes?

The breeches are designed to be substantial, so they are typically worn as the primary pant layer rather than over other trousers.

Are the zippers fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature waterproof two-way zippers to maintain the overall weather-resistant rating of the garment.

How do I maintain the waterproof quality?

Avoid fabric softeners and re-treat the outer fabric with a technical DWR spray if you notice water no longer beads on the surface.

Are they machine washable?

Yes, they are machine washable on a gentle cycle. Always check the care label for specific temperature recommendations.

What is the purpose of the snow gaiters?

The gaiters create a seal at the bottom of the leg to prevent snow and debris from entering your boots while riding or walking in deep snow.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate

Clear any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth and ensure the fabric is not caught in the track.

Foot straps are slipping during a ride

Adjust the elastic tension of the straps and ensure they are positioned correctly around the heel of the boot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent insulation for deep winter riding
  • Waterproof and windproof performance
  • Easy to put on and remove with full-length side zips
  • Secure fit with adjustable foot straps and gaiters
  • Reflective details improve visibility in low light

Cons

  • Heavier feel compared to traditional summer breeches
  • Polyester material may feel warm during high-intensity activity
  • Limited to cold-weather use only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Polar Breeches, follow these guidelines. When putting them on, utilize the side zippers to glide over riding boots comfortably. Adjust the elastic foot straps so they sit securely under your boots to keep the gaiters in place and prevent drafts. Care should involve machine washing on a gentle cycle, preferably with a technical detergent that preserves the waterproof coating. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the breathable, waterproof membrane. Always air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the polyester padding and taped seams.
