FAQs
Are these breeches suitable for competition?
Yes, their professional appearance and functional design make them suitable for many training and lower-level competition settings.
How do I ensure I choose the right size?
Refer to the sizing table based on your waist measurement. Because the fabric is highly elastic, if you are between sizes, consider your personal preference for a snug versus relaxed fit.
Can I tumble dry these breeches?
It is recommended to air dry these breeches. High heat from a tumble dryer can damage the silicone grip and the elastic fibers of the fabric.
Are they suitable for hot weather?
Yes, the fabric is breathable and features a cooling effect designed to regulate body temperature during active use.
Is the silicone grip durable?
The silicone patches are designed for regular equestrian use; however, following proper care instructions regarding washing is key to maintaining their longevity.
Troubleshooting
Silicone grip losing tackiness
Wash the breeches inside out using a mild detergent and ensure no fabric softener residue is left on the patches.
Breeches feel loose after frequent wear
Follow the wash and dry instructions carefully to allow the elastic fibers to return to their original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your HKM Tampa Breeches, ensure you select the correct size by measuring your waist and referencing the provided sizing chart, as the elasticated material has a generous give. For long-term care, turn the breeches inside out before washing to protect the silicone grip patches. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild, technical detergent. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the silicone or the integrity of the elastic fibers. Always air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the elasticity and shape of the garment.
