FAQs
Are these tights suitable for competition?
While highly functional, their casual, pull-on design is typically best suited for schooling and daily training rather than formal dressage or show jumping events.
How should I choose my size?
These tights follow standard UK dress sizing. Choose your normal size, as the fabric is designed to have a snug, athletic fit.
Can I wear these for barn chores?
Yes, they are durable enough for stable work, though the suede-style knee patches should be kept clear of heavy grease or abrasive chemicals.
Do these tights have pockets?
The design focuses on a streamlined, minimalist look; please check the specific garment for pocket placement as they are designed primarily for in-saddle comfort.
Are they machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable, but we recommend a cold, gentle cycle and line drying to preserve the life of the fabric and grip patches.
Troubleshooting
Fabric losing elasticity after multiple washes
Avoid high-heat drying cycles and skip fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and degrade stretch memory.
Knee patch grip feels less effective
Check if dirt or hair has accumulated on the synthetic patch and gently wipe with a damp cloth to restore friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Dublin Performance Flex Tights, follow these care guidelines: Always wash the garment inside out in cold water to protect the synthetic knee patches. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as they can break down the grip properties of the synthetic material. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the elasticity of the fabric; avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can shrink the material and degrade the fit. These tights are sized to be form-fitting; ensure you choose your standard UK dress size to fully benefit from the compressive nature of the stretch fabric.
