Just starting out? You probably have some clothes already that would be safe and comfortable for riding. This book flags up how to cut corners on cost (but never on safety) especially useful if you're preparing for your first ride, letting children try riding or on a tight budget.

But key decisions on what to wear around horses all start with safety, so WHAT TO WEAR FOR RIDING explains the latest manufacturing standards for vital safety equipment such as helmets, body protectors and air jackets and gives tips on buying, fitting and using them.

From riding school to trail riding, stable-yard to show-ring, WHAT TO WEAR FOR RIDING covers everything you need to know when choosing your outfit.
