A guide to essential Equestrian clothing and equipment.
A guide to essential Equestrian clothing and equipment. Starting out in horse riding or equestrianism can be a pretty daunting prospect, many people may have seen movies and TV shows where people seem to wear either strict riding attire or the other end of the scale being anything they want.
It can be tough for newcomers to the sport to recognize which items of clothing or equipment are required, which are optional and what’s just there for show. There are varying styles from formal dressage clothing that you may see at professional sporting shows and then there’s also the western cowboy style clothing too.
For many people learning to horse ride there are a few vital pieces of clothing that you need for safety reasons such as a helmet. Aside from that there are a few other things you’ll need. Riding jodhpurs/pants/breeches The trousers you wear when riding can vary and whilst not vital for beginners they can make your riding experience much more comfortable. Riding horses can be tough on your legs and some people may bruise easily when in the saddle.
Some riding breeches can have added padding to make riding more comfortable, meaning you won’t be regretting getting on the horse by the time you finish! Riding helmet A riding helmet is the most vital piece of equipment you will need when learning to ride. Forget all the films you’ve seen where someone is wearing no helmet, these are trained professionals and you are much more likely to fall off or hit your head when starting out.
The right helmet should be fitted to your head specifically to ensure it doesn’t move around or block your vision. There are traditional velvet covered helmets for showing but there are more durable leather coated helmets for basic horse riding. Paddock boots The design of your riding boots need to be a certain way to make sure your feet can be removed from the stirrups quickly. This is because should you fall or the horse fall you need to be able to get your feet free as quickly as possible to avoid any injuries.
Riding boots can be long or short; some are even only up to ankle height. With a lot of movement whilst riding you need to be sure your boots suit properly to ensure they don’t cause blisters. Riding vests Riding vests are often worn by beginners as they offer vital protection to your body and major organs should you fall.
These vests are normally padded sleeveless jackets but there are some others that can provide harder protective layers similar to bull riding vests. Some equestrian centres insist all children wear these vests so it is best to find out from your local centre before your children or yourself start learning to ride. These are typical safety clothing that all riders may have to wear but they are not everything you may need. It is worthwhile asking at your local equestrian centre to find out the basics and any other equipment you may need.
The requirements may vary between different places so make sure you’re prepared. For all enthusiasts finding the right horse riding equipment is important to make sure the horse and the rider are comfortable.
A variety of equestrian clothing are available online and can be purchased at great prices so go online and see what deals you can find.
