Full details
The GS Equestrian Becca riding tights are designed for female riders who require a balance of security and comfort in the saddle. Featuring a 4-way stretch polyester construction and a high-waisted design, these tights offer excellent freedom of movement and a stay-put fit during intense riding sessions. While the full seat silicone grip provides superior stability, the white colorway is best reserved for show environments due to the nature of the fabric.

FAQs
Are these tights suitable for winter riding?
These are made from standard-weight 4-way stretch polyester. They offer good breathability for spring and summer but may require a base layer underneath for extreme cold.
Does the silicone grip stain the saddle?
No, the silicone is high-quality and designed not to transfer color or leave residue on leather tack when used properly.
Can I use these for jumping?
Yes, the full seat grip is excellent for jumping as it provides the extra security needed when moving out of the saddle.
Are they see-through?
The fabric is designed for riding and is opaque, though as with all white riding gear, appropriate undergarments are recommended.
How do I determine my size?
These are sized by UK dress size. Refer to the manufacturer's size chart to match your dress size to the available options like UK 16.
Troubleshooting
Silicone grip losing stickiness
Wash the tights inside out in cold water and ensure no residue from fabric softeners remains on the silicone.
Waistband rolling down
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is correct and it still rolls, check that the elastic is not being pulled by heavy items in waist pockets.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Secure high-waist prevents downward slippage
- Excellent grip provided by the full seat silicone
- Breathable material keeps you comfortable during exercise
- Easy-on pull-on design for quick transitions
Cons
- White fabric requires careful maintenance to stay pristine
- Limited to specific color-matching requirements for competition
- Polyester material may not offer as much natural warmth as winter-weight technical fabrics
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Becca riding tights in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the integrity of the silicone grip over time.
- Drying: Air dry only. High heat from a tumble dryer can cause the silicone pattern to crack or lose its adhesive quality.
- Compatibility: The tights are designed for use with standard riding boots, chaps, or jodhpur boots. Because of their streamlined design, they fit snugly under half-chaps without adding extra thickness.
- Storage: Store flat or hung to maintain the shape of the elasticated waistband.
