Performance Meets the Show Ring

The Shires Aubrion Optima Mx Breeches are designed for the rider who refuses to choose between traditional style and modern athletic performance. Whether you're navigating a technical jump course or putting in hours of schooling, these breeches offer a "second-skin" feel that moves with you, not against you.

Built with Advanced Climate Control technology, these breeches manage moisture and breathability so you stay cool under the pressure of competition. The anatomical cut and minimal seams ensure that chafing is a thing of the past, allowing you to focus entirely on your horse and your lines.

Why You'll Love the Optima Mx

• Advanced Climate Control keeps you dry and comfortable by wicking away moisture during high-intensity rides.
• Targeted Silicone Grip provides superior stability in the saddle without the bulk or stiffness of traditional suede patches.
• 4-Way Stretch Fabric offers total freedom of movement, ensuring these breeches retain their shape jump after jump.
• Contoured High-Waisted Fit eliminates gapping at the back, providing a secure and flattering silhouette that stays put.
• Professional MX Styling features traditional pleats and discreet zip pockets, making them fully compliant for the show ring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do the Shires Aubrion Optima Mx Breeches fit?

These breeches generally fit true to size based on standard waist measurements. However, because they feature a compression-style athletic fit, we recommend sizing up if you prefer a more traditional, relaxed trouser feel.

Q: Are these suitable for the show ring?

Yes, the Shires Aubrion Optima Mx Breeches are designed with professional MX styling, including discreet pockets and a polished look that meets international dress codes for most disciplines.

Q: What makes the grip on these breeches different?

The Optima Mx uses a matte silicone grip (available in knee or full seat) which provides excellent security and contact without the added heat or bulk of traditional leather or suede patches.
