Do you feel comfortable in your riding gear?

I would say the smell is what worries me the most too.


I quite often run into supermarkets and Town centres with riding kit on. The only thing is that I wear Muck boots instead of my riding boots as I tend to find if it starts raiing my feet get wet otherwise lol.

Find jodphurs are far comifier than jeans as they aren't stiff,
 
I live in my riding kit - my hair straighteners are gathering dust and my 'nice clothes' are all at the back of the wardrobe! I feel self conscious when I dress up, not when I've got my riding kit on!

I went out for a meal the other day and got all dressed up, was thinking 'OMG everyones thinking look at that old bag with the fat arse'! I would have been fine in my jodhs, gilet and muck boots

I hate jods for competing. I have thunder thighs and nothing hides that. I dont know why we have to wear such unflattering things!

I like my home-riding clothes as they consist of big comfy scruffy trousers!

Ripples - just check your old riding hat as standards have changed and your YO or instructor could ask you to wear a a modern hat!

As I said, I'll be wearing all my old gear, except the hat.
