thanks for the feedback guys, I will go try and find a shop with a bunch to try on or hold off until the big events in spring to get to some trade fair events. I do love my traditional tweed but like others say, it just doesnt offer what I need to also wear a body protector which I like to...

Thanks show pony, think I need to get out and trying out lots! I think its a shame to watch someone in a super matchy swish outfit but the jackets so tight that its poped open half way round the course!

I have skinny ankles and have treadstep long boots ( not sure of the model!). They fit really well and I have always tended to wear boots and gaiters due to my skinny legs. I think its a brand popular with showjumpers (?). I think mine look very smart and where a good price. I bought them at...
