These Bellwether women's thermal riding tights are super easy to use. Just step into them like regular tights and zip up the locking ankle zippers. The silicon grippers at the ankles will hold the tights in place, so you don't have to worry about them slipping down during your ride. When it comes to maintenance, machine wash them in cold water with a gentle detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners as they can damage the fleece lining and the reflective accents. Hang them to dry instead of using a dryer to keep their shape and quality. And always check for any signs of wear and tear before each use to ensure a safe and comfortable ride.
