FAQs

Can I machine wash these chaps?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and the integrity of the zipper. Stick to surface cleaning and brushing.

How do I choose the correct size?

Measure your widest calf point and the distance from your ankle bone to the back of your knee while seated.

Are these suitable for competition?

Yes, their sleek design and secure fit make them appropriate for most schooling and informal competition environments.

What is the purpose of the inner patch?

The inner patch is designed to withstand the friction between your leg and the saddle, preventing the suede from wearing thin.

Does the suede stretch over time?

Suede has a natural amount of give, and the ruched elastic helps the chap adapt to your leg shape for a custom feel.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is difficult to pull up

Ensure there is no dirt or debris stuck in the zipper teeth and ensure the calf is not overly compressed.

Popper button comes undone

Check if the female part of the popper is clear of debris or leather shavings that might prevent a firm lock.

Suede feels stiff after cleaning

Gently rub the suede with a dry, soft cloth or suede brush to loosen the fibers and restore its original softness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable suede material for lasting wear
  • Reinforced inner leg patch minimizes friction damage
  • Secure zipper and popper fastening system
  • Contoured design provides a professional, snug fit
  • Excellent breathability for extended riding sessions

Cons

  • Suede requires specific care to prevent staining
  • Not waterproof, susceptible to moisture absorption
  • May require a break-in period to achieve optimal comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, measure your calf circumference and height while wearing your preferred riding breeches. To maintain the integrity of the suede, brush off dirt and dried mud after each ride using a soft-bristled suede brush. If the chaps become excessively wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to harden or crack. For persistent marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner or eraser to spot-treat the area.
