Product Information
Full details
The Shires Aubrion Eltar Riding Tights are designed for adult riders who prioritize comfort and functionality in the saddle without sacrificing style. These tights provide a secure, non-restrictive fit with high-performance moisture-wicking fabric that keeps you cool and dry during intense riding sessions. While they offer excellent grip and support, users should note that the lightweight material is intended for ease of movement and may require careful handling during machine washing to preserve the silicone print.

FAQs
Are these tights suitable for winter riding?
They are designed for breathability and comfort, making them ideal for spring, summer, and autumn. For deep winter, you may need an additional base layer underneath.
Can I use fabric softener when washing?
No, it is recommended to avoid fabric softener as it can coat the fabric fibers and diminish the moisture-wicking capability.
Will the phone pocket hold a large smartphone?
The side drop-in pocket is designed to securely fit most modern standard-sized smartphones.
What is the best way to dry them?
We recommend air drying them on a hanger away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the silicone and fabric.
Do these provide full seat coverage?
Yes, they feature full silicone seat grips that cover the contact areas for improved security in the saddle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Aubrion Eltar tights, turn them inside out before washing to protect the silicone grips. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the wicking properties and break down the silicone adhesive. Hang dry these tights rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer, as excessive heat can cause the fabric to lose its elasticity and the silicone to peel or crack. These tights are compatible with most standard riding boots and chaps due to the slim-profile, shaped lower leg.
