Tough but Fair
I bought my very first riding jacket from Jakatex, I felt SO posh when I wore it, and I'd saved for 9 months to buy it too. My dear parents (totally non-horsey) bought me a pair of military surplus dispatch motrocycle riders elephant ear jodhpurs for christmas when I was 12; I was the laughing stock of Pony Club, but they lasted for years and were the toughest things ever made (I think they were actually WWII surplus).
