Welcome to our independent group test of summer riding tights. All of the leggings in this group test have been put through their paces by event rider and BHSII Lisa Spence. Find out what she thought below.
Official description
The Aztec Diamond technical stretch leggings are made from a substantial premium quality, four-way stretch fabric with added Coolmax for superb stretch and recovery properties, which means they won’t lose their flattering fit. These leggings are essential for any outdoor activity or sport and the quality and technical properties of this fabric provide warmth with breathability and protection against muscle damage.
First impressions
They were very smart looking and flattering, plus I absolutely loved the colour.
Overview of performance
These were very comfortable to wear in and out of the saddle. I found them very breathable and cool to wear around the yard and riding in. I also felt that I that could wear them in the supermarket and for exercising outside a horsey environment.
Lisa’s likes and dislikes
I love that the pockets are large enough for all your essential items, such as keys and phone. If I had to criticise them, it would be that they do not have any extra gripping mechanisms to help keep you in the saddle.

Verdict
*BEST VALUE* I would recommend these to someone who wants something to wear riding, but also to the shops or on the school run.
