Shires Aubrion Optima LX Riding Tights - Young Rider Performance Equestrian Leggings

Performance Meets Comfort for the Next Generation

Finding the perfect balance between the flexibility of a legging and the polished look of a show breech is a challenge for any young athlete. The Aubrion Optima LX Riding Tights bridge that gap perfectly, offering a high-performance fit that supports the rider through every stride, jump, and transition. From our barn to yours, we know that if a young rider feels secure and comfortable, they can focus entirely on their horse.

Designed by Shires for the serious young equestrian, these tights provide a sleek, professional silhouette while maintaining the 360-degree stretch needed for long days in the saddle. Whether they are schooling at home or entering the show ring, these tights are built for the long haul, combining technical durability with a modern athletic feel.

Why Young Riders Love the Optima LX

• Superior Core Stability: The 360º contour support provides a secure, locked-in feel that helps young riders maintain their posture and stability without restricting movement.
• Invisible Saddle Security: A full silicone transparent grip seat offers maximum traction and a steady seat during jumps or fast work without the bulk of traditional patches.
• Advanced Moisture Management: The technical high-stretch fabric wicks away sweat and dries quickly, keeping the rider cool and focused even during high-intensity training sessions.
• Competition-Ready Design: Specifically engineered to comply with GB affiliated competition rules, making the white and beige options a top choice for Show Jumping, Dressage, and Pony Club.
• Practical Storage: Dual discrete phone pockets allow riders to keep their essentials safe and accessible without interfering with their performance or the lines of the tight.
