FAQs

Can I put these breeches in the tumble dryer?

It is not recommended. Air drying is best to preserve the elasticity of the nylon and the performance of the silicone seat.

Are these breeches suitable for competition?

While highly functional, their design is primarily aimed at training; please check your local competition rules regarding color requirements.

How should I measure for the best fit?

Measure your waist at the narrowest point and ensure the length corresponds to your standard riding pant sizing.

Do the mesh inserts make the material fragile?

The mesh is reinforced, but it is advised to avoid contact with sharp surfaces or abrasive horse grooming equipment.

Is the silicone seat too sticky?

Most riders find the silicone provides a helpful amount of grip without being restrictive, making it easier to adjust your position when needed.

Can I wear these in cold weather?

Being lightweight and breathable, they are best suited for mild to warm weather; for winter, you may need a base layer underneath.

Troubleshooting

Silicone grip losing tackiness

Wash the breeches inside out according to instructions and avoid high-heat drying which can damage the silicone.

Material feels slightly stiff after washing

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can leave a residue on synthetic technical fabrics.

Leg cuffs riding up

Check that the breeches are pulled up fully and that the elasticated section is positioned correctly within the boot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip in the saddle due to the silicone full seat
  • Breathable material keeps the rider comfortable during long sessions
  • Lightweight construction prevents fatigue
  • Reflective elements provide added safety
  • Machine washable for easy maintenance

Cons

  • Specific temperature requirements for washing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your HKM Bloomsbury Breeches, proper care is essential. Always machine wash at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius to protect the integrity of the nylon fabric and the silicone print. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the stretch properties and the silicone grip. The breeches are compatible with most standard equestrian boots, and the elasticated cuffs are designed to lay flat against the skin under tall boots or half-chaps.
