Men’s Equestrian Underwear

The right underwear is essential for any rider – no one appreciates rubbing, chafing or getting a wedgie when out on a hack an hour away from home. This is why equestrian underwear is specifically designed to prevent this and offer the protection that horse riders require. From padded panties to seamless compression pants and bras, our carefully tested range will keep you comfortable when riding.

The type of underwear you wear while horseback riding depends on several factors, such as the season, discipline and your gender. However, the most important factor is a good fit. The underwear should not ride up under your breeches or be too tight. This way, you don’t get a visible panty line (VPL). The material should also be suitable for wearing under clothing.

Riding underwear made of breathable fabric and/or material blends with elastane, for example, is ideal. This is because it adapts to your movements and does not rub or chafe. It should also be odour-resistant and have a soft feel to it. In addition, the fabrics should have moisture-wicking properties and bacteriostatic benefits.

Padded riding underwear is also a great option because it prevents saddle sores. The padding is discreetly built into the undergarment and can be used to protect the perineal area from friction and discomfort, especially on long rides.

Unlike cotton underwear, the wicking properties of these products help to absorb sweat and keep you feeling fresh. Moreover, these fabrics are odour-resistant and have antibacterial properties. The padded underwear also has an ergonomic design, making it soft and comfortable to wear.

Another great feature of padded underwear for riders is that it has an anti-chafing layer to reduce the risk of saddle sores and abrasions. It also has a seamless construction to reduce the risk of VPL, as well as a high-leg design that allows you to easily slip your leg under your breeches.

Men’s padded riding underwear, such as the Derriere Bonded Padded Shorty from Seducci, is available in three different styles – classic (no padding), primo (front padding) and plus (front and rear padding). These low-leg briefs are described as invisible and are made of a slimming and contoured waistband, with rash protection down to the knee. They are made of a breathable and stretchy fabric with odour-resistant properties and have naked seams to eradicate any visible lines.

In addition to these great features, padded underwear for riders is also very light. This means that you can easily carry them around with you when you’re not riding. In addition, they are easy to wash in a washing machine. The best part is that they are ethically sourced and manufactured in the UK by Equetech, which is committed to sustainability and ethical production. This ensures that your underwear for horseback riding is sustainable and has a positive impact on the environment, as well as people in developing countries.
