What should you wear for your lesson? If you're a new rider, you can come to your first lesson wearing long pants and a hard soled shoe. Once you decide to take more riding lessons, we require proper riding gear as soon as possible. This is for your safety as well as comfort while riding.
**You will NOT be allowed to ride in “blingy” jeans or pants with buttons on the back pockets. This will damage our saddles.**
What is proper riding gear? Riding is like any other sport and itrequiresproper gear for safety and comfort.
Riding Pants: Your pants should have silicone, suede or ultra suede knee patches for comfort and grip while in the saddle. We do not recommend riding in jeans because the seam lies right where your leg lays on the saddle, which can cause discomfort and rubbing. Our favorite brands of riding jodhpurs (with tie downs) are from Freedman Harness, Krysandkris.com or Kerrits.
Gloves: Gloves help create better grip on the reins and they keep your hands warm in the winter months. Leather riding gloves are the best, such as SSG or Heritage.
Hair: All hair must be pulled back into a braid or a low pony tail during all riding lessons.
