What do you wear when you don't wear jodhpurs?

I have been riding in leggings a lot recently, but that is because it is too damn hot to throw on jodhpurs :(

If I have no intention of riding, then I will wear whatever I wore to work. Dresses, shorts, skirts... I am not picky. My horses are glad to see me regardless of my clothing as normally I have thier dinner with me. :)

When I am doing show prep or relaxing between classes, I pop a pair of pajama pants on or a tracksuit depending on the weather.

Are you me? :D

I wear jeans or leggings, at this time of year I could wear pjs all day and no-one would know because I don't set foot out of the door without overalls or ski-pants on. I even ride in ski-pants.

The joy of looking like a hobo is that it is so easy to tidy yourself up, people say "Oh, don't you brush up well?" (That would be because I am not sporting hat hair and 5 layers of clothing stinking of horses, dogs and goats ;))
 
Jods almost always, unless it's been a stupid day and I rush up in skirt suit and heels. I wear my Jods practically all the time I'm not at work.
 
Jeans i've always hated my johds feel like am wandering around in tights and feel a bit naked in them! love my jeans ride in them too reall comfey nice and hard wearing and when its cold i either but thick leggings underneath or fleec lined full chaps over the top. I use to own a pair of johds for lessons and showing but now am a happy hack i've got rid of them all, i usually look very scruffy old army sweaters are tough and cozy i never look like a typical horse rider more a scruffy farmer!
 
Jeans or jods for riding, most of the time with ski pants over them at the moment.

If going from work, whatever I am wearing. Have been known to school in a stretchy dress with my muck boots on :-)

Late checks are usually pyjamas under my ski pants and coats as I tend to get in around 7, put dinner on, shower, get in pj's and then chuck Norris couldn't get me out of them :-)
 
I alternate between being an utter and total tramp in scaggy New Look leggings and a rugby style shirt tucked into my riding boots to ultra smart designer suits after work. I would add designer suit willl be worn with my long muck boots (the ones you can ride in), as am a total stilletoholic and dont want to wear them at the yard and a large Musto blouson over my jacket. This is my ususal after work wear when Mini TX has done my two and ridden them and I am just going up for a cuddle and quality time.

Personally dont like jodphurs, prefer breeches any day.

Leggings or jeans, I ride in them too. Farm is round the corner, so if just popping up quickly, whatever I have on. Summer, wear shorts if its warm, & stick pants on to ride. Wkend ams often nip round early in pjs & wellies to turn out in winter, or pjs & any footwear to do am check in summer.

Are you going transatlantic on us or are you just into riding like a superhero? Or have something against going commando? :D


I live in jodhs, trackies and jeans. Not at the same time of course :p I am a natural scruff :cool:
 
If I'm not riding some really attractive shell-suit like jogging bottoms that I bought in Wallmart several years ago :eek: . But they are warm as have a lining and practical as hay, shavings and hair does not stick to them and they dry really quickly.

Not suprisingly I'm single :D
 
I only wear Jodhpurs when I am hunting / competing.
Every day wear is jeans, if riding its jeans and chaps! If its cold its tights or leggings under jeans! :)
 
Term time I'm in appropriate 'teacher attire' (smartish, business type stuff) but during the holidays and at weekends I am pretty much in jods all the time - even when I'm not at the yard!! With T-shirts in the summer, warm long sleeves in the winter. At the moment, I must say I look like the Michelin Man!
 
I wear jods and wellies pretty much all the time, even if I'm not going anywhere near a horse :o

Sooo comfy and practical for dog walking.... I actually panic a little bit when I have to go somewhere where I can't wear jods haha!
 
If I plan on riding, will make the effort and put on some jods!
If not, totally embrace my 'inner tramp' and practically live in joggers/trackies tucked into my yard boots. Often go on spontaneous rides in them too....shame ;)
 
If I'm come from home - then jeans or jogging bottoms. However, I have been known to be at the yard in the afternoon in PJ bottoms, hoodie and wellingtons still in the night before's make up having just stumbled out of bed in the afternoon to do my horse, unsuprisingly completely hung over still. You'd think the shame of being seen like this once, would be enough to put off - sadly, I can count a few times this year alone I have been seen like this ... when will I learn?! :rolleyes:

If I'm just popping in either on my way to or from somewhere else - then whatever I happen to be wearing at the time. This can vary from sandals and summer shorts and tops in the summer to a suit.

I tend to only wear johpurs or breeches to ride in though.
