Performance Meets the Show Ring

Young riders need gear that works as hard as they do, whether they're practicing at home or entering the show ring. The Aubrion Optima MX Riding Tights from Shires bridge the gap between technical athletic wear and traditional competition breeches, offering a "second-skin" feel without sacrificing the smart appearance required for Pony Club or local shows.

Built with 360º contour support and moisture-wicking fabric, these tights keep young equestrians comfortable during high-intensity lessons. The MX model is specifically designed for a polished look, featuring belt loops and a sleek silhouette that stays in place from the mounting block to the final fence.

Why Young Riders Love the Optima MX

• Superior Saddle Security. The full silicone grip seat provides the essential stability and confidence needed for jumping and flatwork.
• Competition-Ready Style. Designed with a smart, traditional look and belt loops, these tights are perfect for Pony Club and affiliated competitions.
• Technical Comfort. High-performance moisture-wicking fabric ensures the rider stays dry and focused, even during the hottest summer clinics.
• Smart Utility. Dual discrete phone pockets allow riders to keep their essentials safe and accessible without bulk.
• Precision Fit. The 360º contour support provides a flattering, secure fit that moves with the body rather than restricting it.

Best For

The dedicated young equestrian looking for a high-performance, competition-legal riding tight that offers the comfort of a legging with the look of a breech.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I choose the right size for my child?

These tights are highly elastic. For the best "second-skin" fit that prevents the silicone seat from sagging, we recommend sizing down if the rider is between sizes.

Q: Are the Aubrion Optima MX Riding Tights suitable for shows?

Yes! The Aubrion Optima MX Riding Tights are designed with a polished look and belt loops, making them ideal for Pony Club and affiliated competitions in white or beige.

Q: Are these tights durable enough for daily barn use?

Absolutely. Shires designed these with high-quality technical fabric that stands up to the rigors of daily training while remaining easy to wash and quick to dry.
