Choosing the Perfect English Equestrian Outfit

When choosing your equestrian outfit, it is important to consider safety first. This means that if you are going down the farm or out to a race on your pony, be sure to dress accordingly. It is always best to get clothing that fits well and has been specifically designed for the sport of riding. Your riding jacket and trousers should both be loose fitting so as to allow good movement in the saddle and it is essential to wear a full length horsehide boot.

Your overall equestrian outfit must comprise a riding helmet with either a full face or side-sloping helmet. The helmet you wear will determine how you see out in the field. Your riding boots should also have a good grip on the ground and not slip around. The trousers should be loose enough to allow your legs to feel the wind in them but not so loose as to let you lose control of your horse. In this article we shall attempt to describe how to select suitable Equestrian outfits or what to wear for an introductory horseback riding course.

First of all we should mention the difference between boots and stirrups. Boots are designed for use on soft ground whilst stirrups are more robust and designed for muddy or uneven grounds. Both boots and stirrups are available for men, women and children and can be purchased at your local equestrian equipment shop or online. In the interest of safety it is strongly advised that anyone wearing equestrian equipment should also wear a helmet.

One of the most popular items of Equestrian clothing these days is English Riding Attire. Although this may not look very interesting in the traditional sense, English Riding Attire is actually a great dress code for riders. This type of equestrian outfit is usually made out of leather. Some people choose to add bridles to their attire to some riders may choose to leave them completely removed. Regardless of the choice you have, it is recommended that riders check with their riding teachers before purchasing any English riding apparel.

The key to looking stylish when riding on a horse is to make sure you choose an English riding outfit which compliments not only the style of your house but also your body. Your legs will need to be well covered to avoid being injured if you were to lose control of yourself whilst on the back of your horse. One way of ensuring that your clothes fit perfectly is to take yourself to a reputable equestrian clothing store where they will measure you and help you find the right cut of clothing to fit you perfectly. You should never choose a cut of clothing that is too tight or too loose as this may cause injury. In the stables, the instructors will measure you as well so you can be guaranteed of a quality English riding uniform.

The key to looking stylish in an English riding outfit is to ensure that it fits properly. It is recommended that riders choose the stable which has its own fully accredited fitting room for you to have your measurements taken and your equestrian outfit fitted. The room should allow you access to your trousers and cuffs and should be designed in such a way as to allow you to change and alter your clothes without anyone having to notice. The reason for this is that during a competition all competitors are trying to look stylish and although some may prefer to wear their full uniforms (the ones which are designed to look stylish and fashionable) others may prefer to use their everyday trousers and cuffs.
