Rider Gear

After years of riding through South Carolina summers, here's my go-to hot weather riding gear that keeps me cool without sacrificing function.

You don't need to drop a fortune to look polished in the hunter ring. Here's a complete, show-legal outfit for under $300 - including some $30 breeches you need to know about.

The show shirts that won't leave you drenched before your test. Breathable, competition-legal options that look polished and perform in the heat.

After years of trial and error riding 40+ horses weekly in South Carolina heat, here's my actual summer barn wardrobe - the stuff that survives sweat, sun, and reality.

The sun shirts I actually wear to the barn - breathable, protective, and designed for riders, not the country club.

I've been wearing these breeches nearly every day for months. Here's the honest breakdown on whether they're worth the investment.
