X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers
Grey is the colour of five-rides-a-week riders, and this X-Design earns its place in that rotation. Understated enough for any occasion, hardworking enough to become your default pair.
Every technical detail carries over from the rest of the line: the close second-skin construction, a shaping cut that removes bulk and keeps the profile clean on the flat, knee grip for a stiller leg, and hand pockets that close the deal on practicality. The fitted hem finishes flush inside boots or half chaps.
How it works: the stretch panel construction follows the joint through walk-trot transitions and jumps, then settles back without bagging — the fit you fasten in the morning is the fit you untack in.
Why we rate it: grey matches everything already in your tack-room wardrobe, from a black softshell to the loudest stock pin at a fundraiser ride. No second-guessing required at 6am.

Product FAQs
How do I choose the right size for the X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers?
The X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers by Horse Pilot follows standard breeches sizing based on your natural waist measurement. Use a soft tape measure around the narrowest part of your waist. If you're between sizes, size up — equestrian breeches are designed with stretch but a too-small waist will be uncomfortable in the saddle. Check the Horse Pilot size guide above for exact measurements.
What's the difference between full-seat and knee-patch breeches?
Full-seat breeches have grip material extending from the knee to the seat, providing maximum stability in the saddle — ideal for dressage and flatwork. Knee-patch breeches have grip only at the inner knee, offering more freedom of movement — preferred for jumping and eventing. The X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers is designed for the grip style shown in the product images.
Can I wear the X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers for EA competition?
Check the product description for specific competition approval. The X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers is competition-legal if it meets EA requirements for your discipline — typically beige, white, or navy for most classes. Refer to the current EA rule book for your discipline to confirm.
How should I care for my Horse Pilot breeches?
Machine wash cold inside-out, no bleach, no fabric softener (it degrades the grip material). Hang dry or tumble dry on low. Avoid ironing the grip panels. Proper care extends the life of the X-Design Grey second-skin riding trousers's stretch fabric significantly.
