Equine Splendour, great service, very helpful.
I have had trouble finding riding tights that fit me.
Charlotte at ES has been extremely helpful. She has measured herself and the tights for sizing a normal size chart doesn’t show, sent me quite a few explanatory emails and sent a selection of sizes for me to try.
I now have a very nice pair of riding tights and a few Polo mints too.
Glad your happy with them 😍

I love equine splendour, i have quite a lot from there 😂
I haven’t worn them yet but they were very comfortable when tried on.
I must admit to having reservations about the fancy lower leg material but at least you can identify the tights easily when they’re in the cupboard.

Well thats the only thing, but wearing long boots you wont see them 😍

I change into shoes to drive. It will be interesting when I go to the shop on the way home. I already get looked at because I have my SHORT socks OVER the bottom of my riding tights.🤣

Recently ordered a wormer AND one other item (doggy) from VioVet.

Took them a whole ten days to even get around to despatching the items. The excuse being that "you ordered another item as well as the wormer and that's why it took so long".

Ohh really.

I shan't be ordering from them again. Not ever.

I hate viovet, took 8 hours (EIGHT!!!) of phone calls and the eventual reporting to trading standards to get a refund on medications for my parents dog that got lost in their warehouse. Said meds arrived about 6 weeks later (god knows how they'd been stored whilst lost), and then they asked me to pay for then again, or to return them so they could be resold (illegal under VMD regulations). at least getting meds directly from the vets gets sorted a lot quicker.
