LeMieux Young Rider Stormwear Waterproof Riding Trousers
Description
LeMieux Young Rider Stormwear Waterproof Trousers
The LeMieux Young Rider Stormwear Waterproof Trousers are fully waterproof, thermal fleece lined riding trousers made from breathable DryTex stretch fabric, rated to 5000mm waterproof and 4000mvp breathability. They are designed for young riders who need warm, dry legs for riding, schooling, turnout and yard work through the winter months.
Best for wet and cold days when standard jodhpurs are not enough: the rain beads and runs off the outer, silicone knee grips keep you stable in the saddle, and reinforced knees and inner lower legs handle the wear of stirrups and mucking out. Unisex sizing means they suit both girls and boys.

How to Use
- Choose your usual size to wear over jodhpurs or breeches; size up if you are between sizes or layering thick base layers.
- Pull the trousers on over your riding tights or jodhpurs and adjust the elasticated waistband so the raised back waist sits comfortably over your lower back.
- Fasten the adjustable elasticated boot straps under or around your boots so the hems stay in place while riding.
- Check the silicone knee grips sit over your knee contact point before mounting.
- Zip the pockets closed to keep contents dry and to keep the reflective trim visible.
- After use, brush off mud, hang to dry naturally and store dry to protect the waterproof finish.

FAQ
Are these trousers fully waterproof?
Yes. The DryTex Stormwear outer is fully waterproof, rated to 5000mm, so rain beads and runs off rather than soaking in. Breathability is rated to 4000mvp.
Can they be worn over jodhpurs?
Yes. They are cut to pull on over jodhpurs, breeches or riding tights, which is the most common way to wear them in winter.
What size should I order?
Sizing is unisex. Order your usual size for a comfortable layered fit, and size up if you are between sizes or wear thick thermal layers underneath. The elasticated waistband and boot straps let you fine-tune the fit.
Are they warm enough for winter?
They have a thermal fleece lining as well as a waterproof outer, so they are intended for cold, wet conditions at the yard and while riding.
Will the hems ride up in the saddle?
No. Adjustable elasticated boot straps hold the hems down over your boots while you ride.
How should I wash them?
Close all zips, wash at a low temperature with a technical fabric wash, avoid fabric conditioner and bleach, and dry naturally to protect the waterproof finish and fleece lining.
