Comfort and flattery is the name of the game with these tights. The adjustable fold-over waistband can be set at any height you desire. When pulled up they function very much like spanks, when set lower on the hips, they offer a flattering rear coverage. The silicon grip is placed on the leg where you actually ride from offering a sense of security in the saddle, no matter the conditions. EQUO Schooling Tights are perfect for all riders.
