FAQs
Who are these breeches designed for?
They are specifically designed for adult female dressage riders seeking enhanced security and a close contact feel in the saddle.
What is the main benefit of the silicone seat?
The full silicone seat provides exceptional grip and stability, helping the rider maintain a secure position and control during movements.
Why is the inside leg seam-free?
The seam-free inside leg is an innovative feature designed for close contact, eliminating bulk and potential rubbing points for more sensitive communication with the horse.
How do I wash these breeches?
Machine wash at 30 degrees, separately, inside out, using a gentle detergent. Avoid fabric softener, bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning.
Are these breeches suitable for all riding disciplines?
While functional for many riding activities, their design, particularly the full silicone seat and close-contact cut, is optimized for dressage.
Do the faux pockets offer any storage?
No, the faux pockets are a design element to reduce bulk and maintain a streamlined silhouette; they do not provide storage.
What material are the breeches made of?
The primary material is a lightweight, breathable, and opaque fabric, with a full silicone seat.
Troubleshooting
Reduced silicone grip after washing
Ensure you are not using fabric softener, as this can affect the silicone's effectiveness. Always wash inside out with a gentle detergent.
Fabric feels tight or restrictive
Verify you have selected the correct size. The close-contact fit is designed to be snug; however, if it feels overly restrictive, consider if the size is appropriate for your body.
Seam rubbing on the inside of the leg
These breeches feature an innovative seam-free inside leg designed to prevent rubbing. If you experience rubbing, ensure the breeches are positioned correctly and there are no external factors causing friction.
