Features To Look For In Pikeur Breeches


By Sally Delacruz


The innovative riding breeches being sold today offer so many advantages over those of the past. They not only offer superb comfort and practicality but are stylish in design too. Pikeur breeches are available from many different sources, such as tack stores, specialty equestrian stores, online equestrian equipment stores and even at online auction sites. This brand has a reputation for quality and innovative design.

One of the considerations when choosing such a garment is the type of fabric from which it is made. When synthetic fibers were introduced, a whole new realm of possibility opened up. Blends of cottons and synthetics are popular, combining the best qualities of both. A blended fabric will often be lightweight and have great elasticity while also offering sufficient support. A garment made from a fabric like this will keep its shape well and be easy to care for.

Another advantage of the latest fabrics is the fact that they are breathable. This means that even riders who perspire due to strenuous activities will not have to suffer from chafing or dampness. The perspiration simply wicks out, leaving them dry and warm.

A good fit is essential to comfort and customers can choose from a variety of sizes. A close cut shape provides a great fit but a garment should never be bought in a size too small or movement will be constricted and the wearer will be uncomfortable. A garment that is too big, on the other hand, tends to be unflattering and does not offer enough support.

A style needs to be selected with body shape in mind. Waist height can be particularly important for a proper fit and a mid rise cut is usually best if one is uncertain as this will flatter most figure types. There are also low and regular rise types available. There are also a variety of colors available and in choosing a color, the type of activity needs to be born in mind as different colors are appropriate for different activities in the equestrian world.

Innovative features are continuously being added to these items. One of these is a coating in the knee and seat areas. This polyurethane coating is applied by a special process to make these areas non-slip. The coating is hard wearing and does not rub off. Different types of ankle and waist finishes are used to increase comfort and zipper pockets are practical for storing small items.

Quality is always an important consideration and a customer always wants the best quality they can afford. Purchasing quality items ensures that sagging at the knees, wearing out at the crotch or other such problems do not occur. High wear resistance means they will last for many years, despite being used for strenuous activities.

The best breeches will fit well, flattering the figure and yet also providing great comfort and elasticity. They will be made with attention to the finer details like zippers and pockets, offering practicality and durability. Many such products are available from online stores and reading customer reviews is one way to find out more about which ones are most popular.
