Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your HKM Emma Breeches, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Always turn the breeches inside out before washing to protect the silicone seat. Use a gentle cycle with cold water.
- Detergents: Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these chemicals can degrade the adhesive properties of the silicone.
- Drying: Air dry the breeches away from direct heat sources or radiators. High heat can cause the silicone to crack or peel.
- Compatibility: The elastic ankle design makes these breeches compatible with most standard riding boots and half-chaps.
- Fit: Ensure the size UK 24 measurement aligns with your current measurements to prevent excess stress on the fabric seams.
