Do these have a full seat or knee grip?

Troubleshooting

Silicone grip starting to peel or lose stickiness

Avoid using fabric conditioners in the wash and always air dry. Ensure they are washed inside out to minimize mechanical abrasion.

Difficulty with the slide fastenings

Check that the fastenings are aligned correctly before engaging; if the mechanism feels stiff, ensure there is no debris in the track.

  • Tailored anatomical fit for athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your correct UK waist size. The breeches feature standard belt loops for a tailored look. To maintain the life of the product, always wash inside out on a cool cycle (30°C) to protect the matte silicone grip prints. Do not tumble dry or use heavy fabric softeners, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking capabilities and degrade the silicone adhesive over time. Line drying in the shade is recommended to prevent fabric fading.
