Our last lot have shrunk in the wash over time and were made locally, BBs recommended we try Treehouse as the quality of the ones we have is poor.
What a difference, not only did they arrive within ten days but two shirts arrived, apparently they have changed their material so offered us a choice, the unwanted one to be returned at their expense.
CCJ chose the rugby style which is stretchy and will fit over her body protector, and a hat with a pom pom...
If you need new colours I can't recommend them highly enough....
Look out for her XC, the new ones are a light sky blue with purple stars...
(they should see her coming!)
My only regret is they didn't have the wedgewood blue colour we like so much, but who knows, they may start to stock it.
 
I got mine from Jellybeanz recently - very smart & seem to be washing quite well too....black with red stars on front back & sleeves, silk is black & red with stars too....

very sad also have red tape for my boots - now if only all that colour co-ordinatino stops us from being eliminated at the second fence on Sunday we'll be flying it!!
 
I love tree house!! Did you ring and see if they had blue as when i wanted my colours they didnt do much in orange but sourced it all for me and got some stuff specially dyed!!

CCJ's colours sound lovely - a lot more attractive than the baby pink with silver stars sported by someone at Towerlands JAS earlier this year, yuk!
 
That would be Gemma Tattersal , Rosiefan!

Bee's colours are wedgewood blue with purple stars too. She had black collar and cuffs and a pom pom and black peak on her hat.

All the first aid training I have done recently strongly advises that the BP is always put on as the last layer on top, so that it can be quickly and safely removed if ant first aid is needed, particularly heart massage!
 
Was at an incident recently where girl broke he leg, we had to lift her off horse (she was kicked) and she had BP under a top. She was uncomfy and claustrophobic and really wanted her BP removing.

I managed to take it off for her but it caused her extra pain as she had to partly sit up to be able to lift her top enought to get to the velcro shoulders.

You can't see a BP anyway as it sits under the number bib , or get one made in your colours.
 
I met the people who own Treehouse at a p2p track tread in thing and they seemed such nice helpful people!!

If I ever need XC colours i know where to go!
 
got my yellow xc colours with blue and green spots from tree house... amazing quality had them for two years now lol!

also, bought some yellow gloves (SEGs i think?) and stuck blue and green spots on to "complete the look" haha

I got my hat silk made for me off someone on Ebay. Otherwise for a shirt, I just use one in the right colour from Toggi! Seems to look ok. Especially with my body protector in my other colour over the top (so it all matches).
