Riding Breeches with Shaping Stitches “Momentum”

“Momentum” are graphite grey women's full-seat riding breeches for daily training, clinics and the yard. They share the shaped cut of our “Confidence” competition breeches, with shaping stitches, a tailored waistband and belt loops, plus a full-seat silicone grip and a dense stretch fabric (72% polyester, 28% spandex) that hides arena dust.

Graphite grey is the colour that works every day of the week: it hides arena dust, sits well with navy, black, white and chocolate, and looks composed at a clinic or on the yard. “Momentum” brings the cut of our shaped “Confidence” breeches to daily riding — shaping stitches that draw a clean line through hip and thigh, a tailored waistband that lies flat, and belt loops. The waistband fastens with concealed hooks behind two decorative branded snaps, so the front stays flat and clean.

The fabric is a dense stretch blend — 72% polyester with 28% spandex — that holds its structure rather than clinging and keeps its shape from the first ride of the day to the last. It moves with you in the saddle, recovers when you dismount and dries quickly.

Full seat silicone grip covers the seat and inner leg, holding the whole contact area steady through transitions, lateral work and long schooling sessions. Slanted front pockets sit flush, and the back is finished with decorative pocket flaps rather than real pockets, so nothing adds bulk in the saddle. The EQUESTRIAN lettering on the back waistband and the Valerie Equestrian logotype on the thigh are the only branding. Wear them with the white “Purity” show shirt or the warm grey “Agility” rashguard.

Specifications

Care:
