FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ClimateTEK technology?

ClimateTEK technology is designed to dynamically respond to your body's temperature, helping to keep you cool by drawing heat away from the skin, especially during strenuous activity.

How do the silicone grip knee patches work?

The silicone grip patches are strategically placed on the knee area to provide enhanced friction and stability, helping to secure your leg position in the saddle and prevent slipping.

Are these breeches suitable for all seasons?

The mid-weight stretch knit and ClimateTEK cooling make them ideal for warmer weather and intense activity. For very cold weather, layering or choosing a heavier weight breech might be more appropriate.

What does 'Core Control Technology' do?

Core Control Technology provides targeted support to the rider's core area, offering a slimming effect and contributing to better posture and stability in the saddle.

How does the Ariat V3 waistband differ from a standard waistband?

The Ariat V3 waistband is engineered for a close, comfortable fit with inherent stretch, designed to move with the rider and provide a secure feel without constriction.

Can I wear these breeches for casual riding or only for competition?

While designed with competition features and aesthetics, their comfort, support, and technical capabilities also make them excellent for serious schooling and training sessions.

What is the benefit of the stain-repellent finish?

The stain-repellent finish helps to repel dirt, mud, and other common riding stains, making the breeches easier to keep clean and maintaining their appearance with less effort.

Troubleshooting

Breeches feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the size chart. The compressive nature of the fabric means a snug fit is intended, but if movement is severely limited, consider a size up.

Silicone grip is not effective

Check that the silicone grip patches are clean and free from dirt or debris. Wash the breeches according to care instructions. Ensure the saddle flaps are clean as well.

Cooling technology does not seem to work

ClimateTEK technology is most effective when there is airflow and when the rider is generating heat. Ensure the breeches are worn directly against the skin or over a moisture-wicking base layer. Performance may vary based on ambient temperature and humidity.

Stains are difficult to remove

While the finish is stain-repellent, heavy staining may require pre-treatment before washing. Use a mild stain remover suitable for technical fabrics and wash as per care instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cooling properties for hot weather riding.
  • Provides good support and a secure feel in the saddle.
  • Durable and easy to maintain with stain-repellent finish.
  • Fashion-forward design with embellished trims.
  • Comfortable and compressive fit for long riding sessions.

Cons

  • Sizing can be inconsistent and may require trying multiple options.
  • Mid-weight material might be warm for extremely hot, humid climates.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These breeches require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the package. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal performance and comfort.

Compatibility:

Designed for equestrian use, these breeches are compatible with standard riding boots and half chaps. The Calf Fit System ensures a smooth transition under tall boots.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the integrity and performance of the fabric and technologies:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impede the moisture-wicking and cooling properties.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the technical fabrics and silicone grip.
  3. Bleaching: Do not use bleach.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
