KERRITS TO INTRODUCE BREATHE TIGHT PERFORMANCE TIGHTS
In stores spring 2009, Kerrits will launch Breathe Tight, the latest member of Kerrits performance tights and breeches collection. Breath Tight is a full-seat tight that utilizes the new, exclusive Gripstretch suede panels through the seat and inner leg that continue to wrap around the knee for added stability and joint support.
The core fabric of the Kerrits Breathe Tight, originally constructed for mountaineering, is thermo-regulating, lightweight, snag-resistant and extremely durable. It provides compression that has both anti-fatigue and slimming effects. Four-way stretch guarantees a perfect fit that moves with the rider. This tight has a side pocket that won’t allow its contents to interfere with riding, while being easily accessible in the saddle.
“The new Breathe Tight has a fun, unique look and is extremely comfortable to ride in all day, holding up to the heavy-duty use I put it through,” says Kerrits team rider Jessica Heidemann, who rides five horses a day, six days a week. “I really like the placement of the panels and the overall shape of the tight for its slimming effect and coverage. And I like the way the knee panel wraps around my knee, offering extra protection.”
Priced at $99, the Breathe Tight embraces machine washing and is available in Gunmetal, Latte and Black.
