FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for all riding disciplines?

How do I determine the right size if I'm not familiar with UK sizing?

Can the silicon knee patches be removed?
The silicon knee patches are integrated into the breeches and are not designed to be removed.
How often should I wash these breeches?
It is recommended to wash them after each significant use to maintain hygiene and the integrity of the silicon patches. Follow the care instructions for best results.
What is the main advantage of silicon knee patches over traditional breeches?
Silicon knee patches offer significantly more grip and stability in the saddle compared to traditional fabric or leather patches, helping to prevent the rider's legs from slipping.
Is the nylon material stretchy?
Nylon generally offers some degree of stretch and flexibility, allowing for ease of movement while maintaining its shape and durability.
Troubleshooting
Silicon patches losing grip
Ensure the patches and the saddle area are clean and free from dirt, grease, or residue. Wash the breeches according to care instructions.
Sizing seems incorrect
Refer to the UK sizing chart provided by the retailer or brand. If unsure, consider the measurement guidelines for waist and hips to match the UK 12 sizing.
Fabric feels too thin for cold weather
For colder conditions, consider layering with thermal base layers underneath. These breeches are designed for breathability.
