I really like Decathlon...we've had a new one opened near me recently and I'm very excited to be able to go and potter around in it instead of doing the grocery shopping as I should be.
I'm generally a fan, especially for equipment, but some fabrics have not been of the quality I'd expect lately (to the point of wearing through really fast).

I won't buy Holland and Cooper or Le Meiux as I know some of the models as they are South African riders. Many of them are absolutely disgusting people in real life who shout at grooms and go through horses like we change wet socks. Some well known for their bullying in show jumping and dressage. I do wish the brands would do their research on riders if they are going to use them. The new Holland and Cooper model with the grey horse is a dreadful person.
To be honest to me they all look like dreadfully shallow vain people ?

I just received an order from Equine Splendour (ordered on a recommendation from the H&H hive mind rather than any perky-booty ads) - any they came with free polos and a thank you note! Free sweets. Now you're talkin' my language :p (the leggings are great to, thanks Hive)

Best delivery since my new Clippers arrived with a free pack of Haribo and a beanie hat!

I have 6 pairs of these leggings, including their competition ones. They are amazing!

Totally agree, DH and I were saying this the other day, especially with regards to men's equestrian clothing. He is mystified about why he can buy stretchy lycra warm breathable quickdrying cycling leggings with appropriate padding/seams/technical features, likewise running skins, but for riding he has to spend more money to get restrictive cotton breeches that are basically snug chinos. Why aren't equestrian brands using technical fabrics to make fit for purpose performance clothing?
It amazes me that it's so difficult to get good technical fabric clothes for riding. The rest of the sporting world has embraced these, but not so much the equestrian world. Why can I get a brilliant, waterproof, goretex jacket for snowboarding but struggle with the same thing for riding?
