Nice hat for dressage/sj?

[Nosey]

Had a nice navy beagler for dressage & looking for replacement for it? Any suggestions? I'm a bit traditonal & have a Charles Owen shaped bonce! I'm currently just using navy velvet silk over crash skull! Thanks

The Charles Owen Fiona is very traditional looking and smart

I have just got a CO Ayr8, and I think it looks very smart.

 

[Nosey]

Thanks both...will check them both out. The ayr8 looks interesting....is it comfortable?

champion grand prix , much lower profile than the Fiona hat

I've got the Fiona, love it!

I have the ayr8 with silver middle for dr and SJ and find it so comfy. I also have a CO shaped head. Currently saving up for the ayr8 leather look one. The Fiona is nice but much prefer the Wellington. I have the skull of it with the nape support and it really does make a difference comfort and hat stability wise.

Charles Owen Wellington Classic!

Its showjumping style cut in traditional navy and flesh strap and I use for both SJ/Dressage etc

Lovely hat well worth the money!

Ayr8 is super comfy. Bought it last min before a championship so never wore it until I got on to ride. It certainly was the last thing on my mind that day

I have the Ayr 8 too and love it. Very comortable, lightweight and so much cooler in hot weather than my other hats!!

Townfields saddles should be at Olympia. They have the full range of CO hats.
