Care and Maintenance of Your Riding Apparel and Dressage Clothes

Following are some helpful tips to help you get the most out of your Dressage Riding Clothes investment. Feel free to comment on this post and add your own care tips!

BREECHES
Full seat leather breeches must be machine or hand-washed at cold temperature using a mild detergent specially designed for the care of soft leather. Please do not tumble dry breeches or iron under any circumstances. Allow to drip-dry and do not expose to full sunlight or direct heat. DO NOT DRY CLEAN

LAUNDERING TIPS

  1. Always turn your breeches inside out prior to washing. Helps with fading.
  2. The first time you wash your breeches use 1 teaspoon of white vinegar in the wash cycle. This will help set the dye in the leather.
  3. AFTER WASHING REMOVE BREECHES PROMPTLY FROM WASHER. Reduces the risk of the leather bleeding onto the fabric. This is especially important with dark leather.
  4. After washing roll clean breeches in a towel to remove excess water. This will decrease drying time which helps keep the leather from getting dry and hard.
  5. If the leather in your breeches has hardened use a leather conditioner made for washing of leather apparel.
  6. Use Scotch Guard on you white show breeches (excluding the seat). This will help keep them clean longer. Scotch Guard can also be used on your show jacket, breeches, top hat. Use Castile soap to spot wash white breeches.

SHOW JACKETS
All wool and wool/mix jackets should be dry-cleaned only. Jackets made in synthetic may be machine or hand-washed at a cold temperature using a mild detergent. Please do not tumble dry. Reshape jacket on hanger with buttons closed and allow to drip dry. (If ironing is required, use clean barrier cloth laid on top of material to protect fabric surface and use low heat only). Please do not expose to sunlight or direct heat.

SHOW PADS
Follow manufactures washing instructions. Use Castile soap to spot wash.
