omg the postage was crazy from germa - I managed to snag a pair in the sale in the UK. They are a long so hopefully not too far off a regular.
surely that’s a typo?

In my experience with Arandu Talabarteria the prices shown are in Argentine pesos and don't work out especially expensive. For example, this lovely scarf (which is quite generous, natural fabric and really lovely) costs £53. That is really reasonable in comparison with an item of similar quality purchased here. https://arandu.com.ar/producto/24021-chal-pampa-de-lana-merino/

Surely Horseware Ireland and the original Rambo/Rhino rugs have to get a mention?

Just a side note that may be of interest to other Republic of Ireland HHO subscribers. There is a facility in Belcoo, just over the border, called The Parcel Motel where you can elect for parcels from UK to be shipped for collection within 30 days thus avoiding the 23% VAT and import duties you would be liable for if you shipped direct to your ROI address. It sounds dodgy but they operate within the law and their handling charge is very reasonable. They will also arrange onward shipping to ROI if you want to buy from a UK company that won’t ship to ROI like Horsemanship Saddlery.

Most of my stuff is from overseas these days... from hongkong and China, via ebay ?

For anyone wanting a more niche but UK sort of thing: Lansdown make rugs that are even better than Thermatex. And not so expensive either

For non UK fun, but very practical (of course) Australian Barcoo bridles are iconic, truly and very lovely. These are reasonably priced too but lovely quality:- https://newmarketsaddlery.com.au/barcoo/
You can get them here in the UK but not such a selection...

Does anyone know the brand Felix Bühler? They do equestrian wear. I tried one of their lotta long riding coats when i was away and thinking of getting one as it was really nice, stylish and still seemed practical for cold and windy weather.
