Hello

About a year ago I bought some Horseware breeches for about £70 (ish). I thought I'd spend a bit extra seeing as they were for comps, and to me that's quite a lot of money, or not?!

Anyway in a year I have compete only a handful of times, less then 10. So I have hardly worn them, but after sj last week I noticed some wear and tear on the inner thigh - fine, but the suede is actually like silk now! And on my left leg it has actually worn down so you can see my skin! :-O

I'm not very happy about this because it means I am having to get another pair, and I wasn't expecting to get another pair quite so soon!!

Am I being silly or do I have a right to contact Horseware? I can't go back to the shop because it's closed down to become an internet business, and seeing as it was a year ago I don't think I'd have much of a case with them....

What do you think?
 
Definately contact them - I would say they were expensive at £70 and even if they were £10 then they are designed for a purpose - they should have lasted for more wears than this. Just send a polite email explaining how disappointed you are etc and would be interested to hear their comments. They should be willing to help you and if not you never buy another pair and tell all of us what happened so we know if we should buy them or not!!

Should have said - I would miss out the shop and go to Horseware direct : )
