How do I know my correct size?

Is the material waterproof?
No, the denim material is not waterproof and is intended for use in dry or mild riding conditions.
Do the pockets have zippers?

Troubleshooting
Suede seat becoming slippery
Gently brush the suede with a specialized leather or suede brush to lift the nap and restore its grip.
Waistband feels tight or gaps
Ensure the breeches are pulled up correctly to align with the natural waist; if the fit persists, try a different size to better accommodate your torso length.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Dublin Shona breeches remain in good condition, wash them inside out on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid using heavy detergents that can strip the suede seat of its grip properties. Hang them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high temperatures can degrade the material and cause the suede to become stiff. While they feature suede belt loops, ensure your belt is smooth to avoid snagging the fabric. These breeches are designed to be true to size; consult the manufacturer's size guide for your specific UK dress size to ensure the most comfortable fit around the waist.
